Really digging their sound. Instrument parts are fantastic - some describe them as JAMC mixed with...[i]something[/i]. I just find their vocals to be a little awkward. I don't know...maybe too many words??

The lead guy has a bit of a young Joe Strummer look to him.

Blir, Don't hold me to this but I believe they are opening up for Echo and the Bunnymen at Radio City. They were the opening act for their show last week at the Royal Albert Hall.

I hear Billy Bragg meets Lush. Or APB meets Swervedriver meets 60s girl groups. [:p]
