Any fans? Just watched the clip of them on . Bonkers and/or coked up frontman and pleasant tune together makes for interesting viewing. |

Big fan! In fact, They came high enough in my tracks of the year in (I think) 2012 that they made the top 10 in the SoundsXP list. I currently have them as the second to last Record Of The Week ever on The Sound Of Confusion. I tell a lie - it was 2011, they're number 3! http://soundsxp.com/artman2/publish/spe ... 2011.shtml |

Balance: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_vI_kx4J8Vc&feature=kp It took me a few plays but given time it becomes amazing. The current record of the week - Seasons (Waiting On You) - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-5Ae-LhMIG0 |

Oh - and it's bonkers, not coked up. Apparently there are some raps he's done on YouTube but I haven't heard them. He's a bit of a character though. |

I saw the clip - think they're bloody awful, though. |

Saw them at The Old Blue Last about 5 or 6 years ago, wasn't impressed. Haven't heard them since. |

Yeah I can imagine them being hit and miss with some people. It was high votes from me and Anarchy that got them so high in the SXP poll. |
