Does anyone have anything from this Aussie band? I'd never heard of them, but happened to see a rave about this video elsewhere on the boards:

Thanks a lot! That song really grows on you.

I'm curious if anyone can describe what their other stuff sounds like. Same goes for The Limp, which I understand has some overlap with this band.

From what I can remember very similar to "No Word From China". I think I saw them live twice,but it was a long time ago.
