Our friends. Mostly Emma Connell and Ben Crossley though. Richard Watson is more or less the coolest kid in town.
Sounds Like: what you'd from expect a collabaration between the untimely death of catwoman and a computer being dropped from a third story window.
so perhaps a computer being dropped ontop of cat woman.
and we're not talking like your very day laptop, we mean super computers they used for war stratergies.
we're not pro war though.
not at all.
also, pop music. and banter.

Matt King says this about us:

"They sung some pretty great songs and were really fun. Best quote of the night: "we're the second worst band in Northampton… the Uptown Decadance Unit being number one"! He's not wrong, though that's gotta be the biggest gap between one and two."

Zoe Scott said this about us:

"That was disrespectful to do in a church"

Or something like that. It's not like what she says matters.

Mark Longland said this about us:

he goes on about his band like they're the best
and they're really not


Chris East said we were fun, or funny, or something. I forget what.

"Your stuff is better than your music" - Patrick Smyth of Cityscape when he was given a sticker
it's true, I guess.

Try us for yourselves? Not on myspace though. Come see a show or let us do one in your house or favourite music venue. Or something.
Record Label: Sarah knows Freddie from Cry Wolf! so maybe them?
