“We came up with a sort of manifesto that we haven’t deviated from; the songs have to be fast, short and heavy and the vocals have to involve me screaming as loud as I can.”

Simple as – have a listen………

Craig E. Pierce -Bass
Daniel Devine – Vocals
Luke Tristram – Guitar
Samir Eskanda – Drums

a special show has just been announced at new venue The Victory on Thursday 24th Feb as a tour warm up. Perhaps the last time you will be able to see them in a venue with just over 100 capacity!

Ok I am not sure why I haven't written about these guys before. Its pretty much a year after they started getting recognised for creating intelligent fuzzy post punk electronica. The duo who wrote most of the songs whilst being nearly 1000 miles apart in Barcelona and London. The songs are all quite intricate and very well thought out but like the best comedy come across as being made up on the spot. It sounds like a massive jam that you want to go on forever. Its catchy, it builds and it shouts in your face at the same time as being incredibly melodic. The reason I am writing about them now is cause I heard that they are doing their first ever headline show in London in a few months, and I cannot wait for that. Everyone I introduce to this band always searches out more tracks and become a genuine fan. Its not "oh thats cool, I like that" it is "Wow this is amazing play it again" all the time, 60% of the time! You wont regret listening to this band, there is no escaping their genius! Also check out the video to the song you can stream, it is pretty hilarious! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F5UigrTZaok
