I've had these guys' older cd's for awhile but they finally made it with their new cd. The video is great. It almost reminds me of a very happy "Talking Heads" song. They are on tour for Lollapalooza this year as well. That means they scored! :wink:

I've heard most of the new cd. Their other cd's sound kinda like "The Cure" punkish. I guess because of the vocals which is why I think they sound so much like "The Talking Heads" so much. 80's, 80's, 80's...

yep
My friend who introduced me to them 2 years ago liked them because he is as big of a cure fan as I am.
