Not in the slightest. Their debut album makes me want to injure myself and others...

I mean when they first appeared I was sympathetic to what they were trying to achieve, they were just crap at it... A bit too much style over substance for my liking.

That said - it's not nice to hear of someone's career getting hampered by suffering a stroke at such a young age :( Best wishes to him (and them)...

Well I'll miss them. I've really love everything they've done and there's not many bands I can say that about.

yeah, I liked them a lot.

Saw them quite a bit in the early days - upstairs at the Garage, Nambucca etc.....they were great.
Their first few singles were fantastic.

And as an aside this picture of Kate's feet are my most popular photo on flickr

I liked Couples a lot - am only just digging backwards. So it is a shame.

I missed them live a few years back due to the Leadmill's infuriating tendency to start (and finish) gigs ridiculously early so they can have a drinks promotion after. Arrived for the last few bars of the last song.

(Mind you, they were third on the bill - worse was the time I rolled up at 8:30 to find that the headline band had already started..)

The only tears shed here were watching the final part of Sunshine tonight. Long Blondes were ok but not as good as they looked.
