Sounds Like: THE GREATEST ROCK N ROLL ORGASM YOU EVER HAD!- mark wilks!THEIR ACOUSTIC SET They have the sound of a Noel Gallagher acoustic session, with a Passionate down to earth voice, delivered with a perfect lonesome drawl. SETTING SUN stomping mod and Britpop inspired, with a lot of soul and attitude. RED EYED DEVIL A year on, they have crafted a sound that strikes you as both timeless and modern and impossible to pigeon-hole. The song itself doesnt tug on the heart strings, but relies on atmosphere, pace, great groove and some dark lyrics.- chris boland (The huntspost).
