I've heard their name mentioned a few times now....any good? Are they like The Mood, not well known, but kick ass?

Check them out on youtube. A lot of their stuff has been posted. Start with a search for Silent Running Emotional Warfare (from their first album) and you'll get links to all their stuff. They are really nothing like new wave/new romantic sounds of The Mood. They've been compared to Simple Minds and later U2, and that is definitely a good comparison. Good stuff, but very rock/arena rock in most cases from what I listened to on youtube.
