Wanted to get the FOT's thoughts on this band.

I know Matthew Perpetua of Fluxblog is a big fan. He's a FOT. They played here in South Florida just before Halloween, and I'm sad I missed it. I bet it was a fun show. :(

Also, I like those dairy council ads whatshisface from Electric Six did.

I think they are fantastic.  I can't figure out why these guys aren't HUGE.

I saw them in '07 (?) at The Century Lounge in PVD. They were great. They were apparently much bigger in the UK than they were here (at least according to a girl I had crush on in college upon her return to the States from a semester abroad in '04).

They were briefly big here. 'Danger (High Voltage)', 'Gay Bar' and 'Dance Commander' went top 10, then destination nowheresville.

I saw them at 7th St. Entry back when Fire came out. They're a fun band to see, but I don't really listen to their albums that much.

LOVE the Danger, High Voltage single and video, but don't like anything else they've done. Went to see them live and thought it was mostly dumb.  I'll take the eagles of death metal for boogie rock schtick.
