Interesting. They better not suck.

It pisses me off when someone's got a good image or name and then they go and fuck it all up by sucking ass.

Not bad, but not so much what I was thinking. It's just like, old school stuff, done again... If you're gonna bring back an old style, you oughta add your own twist, I mean, I guess they have.. But oh well...

I'm thinking:

Industrial Punk Swing.

Watch out.

Er, I wasn't saying that's what they were. To me, they didn't sound too industrial or punk... Or swing, really. haha...

I mean, that's what I'd like to do. You know. If I had talent.

i was going to guess tufts, but then your website gave it all up.

zoo mass amherst is known to me very well. a buddy of mine lives in northampton and we raved in sevral bars up there. i even got thrown out of a bar for arguing with a bouncer. that was fun!

I listened to them, very little though. They were awful. You do not have to be a diva to sing in a band. You can have a rough voice. But if you simply cannot sing. Punk will not hide it. That is not music nor even noise. It is torture.

Hrm... Was I listening to the wrong stuff? It did not sound punk, in any way at all, to me...

There are five songs on their website.

I haven't listened yet, but am not holding out much hope; they don't appear very interesting. Nice flash site, though.

i should have known better than to try to get any of you guys to actually give something a fucking chance, because obviously you'll all lose your "cool" badge...

From what I heard, I'd say more "Weimar Republik Show Choir". Interesting. Not enough on the site for me to decide if this is something I'd purchase for listening.

It was cute, I suppose. I'd have to hear more to make an informed decision.
