Vigoda then walked in and declared, "I'm not dead yet, you pinhead!"

what may be shocking news to you has actually been on my radar for a few months. Abe Vigoda (the man) is not dead. Born February 24, 1921 he is still kickin'. There is the other Abe Vigoda that has seen the death of their original sound and the birth in a new genre. Based out of Chino, California the band started as "tropical punk rock" but on their latest album Crush, it's synth rock all the way through. The lead singer's voice is reminiscent of 1980's synth bands and that holds a very special place in my heart. They were recently on tour with Wild Nothing and of course, I missed it. Gah!
