!! OMG, download a new Hunx and His Punx song: "Lovers Lane" !!

Hunx and His Punx mastermind Seth Bogart landed on our gayest songs of 2010 list with his cry-in-the-dark club anthem "Can A Man Hear Me?" (If there's a 'dingo ate my baby joke' in there somewhere, I can't think of one.) This year he's prepping his debut album Too Young To Be In Love with an new all-girl backing band dubbed the "Punkettes". The first song off the album "Lovers Lane" rides the girl group revival vibe, complete with spoken word lyrics and a nod to the "Be My Baby" drum intro. Check it out below.

Too Young To Be In Love is out March 29 on Hardly Art. North American tour dates after the jump.
