What’s the deal?
Four lads from Swansea intent on making every person in earshot move their feet, and with enough energy and enthusiasm to be looked to as a new power source. Difficult to pigeonhole due to a mishmashing of styles, The danceable keyboard-stabbing flourishes of electro, the punchy bounce of danceable indie, the pounding drums and groove of Queens Of The Stone Age, gorgeous harmonies, infectious melodies and witty lyrics all glued together with an unstoppable sense of fun.

Will I Like it?
You certainly should! With such a diverse range of elements to their sound, there’s bound to be something you’ll like. They’ve already won over fans supporting Shiny Toy Guns and The Automatic, but with elements of Clutch, Refused and even Isis, there’s no reason they shouldn’t appeal to those of a heavier musical disposition. Essentially, this is for anyone that likes having fun, the po-faced need not apply.

What’s Next?
Still unsigned, but with a growing frenzy around them and by playing toilet venues like they’re headlining arenas they should be snapped up soon. Their début album is nearing completion and you should expect to see them firmly on your radar by the end of the year.
