Halloween Swim Team gave us a happy new year 18 months ago with its debut album “The End of the Sky,” and now the L.A. trio is setting is sights on a bigger project – a series of six EPs leading up to the release of a new album “ANTENNAAA.” The first finds HST very Devo-ted, with twining synth lines and insistent beats serenading narrator Dustin Krapes’ uneasy march through psychedelic wonderland. Not quite the party that some of “The End of the Sky” implied, but Krapes, Jon Navarro and Scott Carillo have five more EPs to work up to that.
