The Strays

From what I have been reading about this band, they are being compared to The Clash and the Buzzcocks.
I am not sure I agree with the comparison wholeheartedly but their debut album "Le Futur Noir" has me curious.
Anyone heard of them?

They're pretty good. I'd add Nirvana to that list though. The song "Peach Acid" is a rip of "On A Plain" (but seeing as how I like "On A Plain" that's fine by me).
