Living Things are a St. Louis punk rock band built around three brothers, Lillian Berlin on vocals and guitar, Eve Berlin on bass and Bosh Berlin on drums, with Cory Becker on guitar. They started out in 2002 and arrived in the thick of the punk revival with a snarl that sounded properly angry rather than merely fashionable.
DreamWorks Records put out Ahead of the Lions in 2005, and "Bom Bom Bom" is the song from it that stuck: a strutting, stomping rocker, lean and mean where a lot of their peers went for sloppy. It kept turning up on alternative countdowns for years afterwards.
