The underground tale of Matty Luv (Hickey)

Hikey were a punk band (94-98) from San Francisco that drew inspiration from philosophers, human rights activists, and serial killers. They toured in small ‘redneck’ bars and engaged with the crowd, often insulting them and encouraging them to join their cult – The Naked Cult of Hickey. Matty Luv was their singer and the cult leader.
