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

It took me a few plays but given time it becomes amazing.

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.
