Any fans? Currently listening to "Do you like rock music?" again. A nice honest pop rock album. It's nice to know that indie music isn't completely lost.

Would love to see them live, they play in some of the best places. I'm sure I heard they played at the Czech embassy in London as a thank you as they recorded their album in Czech Republic. They also played a couple of times at High Rocks, a pretty picturesque place in Tunbridge Wells, near where I live.

I had heard a lot about them so went into the crowd to see them in Green Man and promptly left. It just sounded bland and dull, and the crowd weren't really enjoying it either.. but the crowds in Green Man were chilled to the point of apathy anyway, for every single act.

Yeah, cool band. I like them and the time they played Belfast it was a good gig.

A very, very good band. One of the few genuinely original indie bands around at the moment.
Still love this more than is good for me.

Great video. They are full of great ideas. How can anyone not like a band who wrote the lyric "Totally wicked and equally ace"?
