"...gave indie pop a new and improved face... out of the ordinary riffs and humourous lyrics set them apart from many bands currently gigging in Perth... the vocalists demonstrated great range, and some excellent harmonising from the bass player added depth to their sound... were not afraid to step outside the box and experiment which worked to their advantage." - X-Press Mag
"...played to a large crowd, most of who would have left converted...Their opening song was ultra impressive ... sounded like they'd been gigging for years... one of the true highlights" (Next Big Thing 2007) - Drum Media
"Side comfortably outside the box... eccentric pop" - X-Press magazine
"...unpredictable...focused and ear-catching"- X-Press magazine

Thanks for being our myspace friend. We get spammed all the time on myspace and its getting hard to know who's a fan and who isn't. If you are a fan it would be great to see you at our next gig - see www.jimmyyukka.com. In future the best way to find out about what we are up to is to join our mailing list.
If you have any questions about this or anything you can
HFOS are looking fwd to the Generals & Majors ANIMALS fundraiser on the 4th here's hoping you guys get some funds & we all get a good audience>>>>>>>>>
Just stopping by to say hello and give you some news. The new album 'Coolgilly and the Freakshow' from Centascope is now available worldwide from CD Baby and directly from the merchandise page of the official website. You can also get the album from Apple iTunes, MSN Music, Rhapsody, Napster, Amazon and many more.
Hey General & Majors. Thanks for responding to our current Friends drive and adding Bands@Manjimup. We are doing this because we have a few really exciting events coming up like our recent concert, on Friday 20th, featuring Elora Danan (photo below) on their debut album tour, Manji prog rock band Ashoka and Perth ambient rockers Laced Affair. It was a high energy show with fantastic sound, and those who came got to meet the bands for more than an hour afterwards. The pictures are now up as a slideshow. Check them out at the top of our profile.
Next, we'll be hosting the biggest regional event in this year's WAMi Festival calendar, on 22nd May. The support acts: Abbe May, Sneaky Weasel Gang, Desert Radio and Ashoka. The headline act for the concert will be Callerway. Following day Abbe (songwriting) , Drew Godart (guitar) from Karnivool, Roy Martinez (bass) and Nick Johnson (drum tuning, cymbal selection and kit set-up) from Eskimo Joe will feature as lecturers in our B@M Youth Muso Workshops.
The June gig will feature an even bigger headline band, probably supported by local heroes Ashoka and Electrostatik.
We'll keep you updated with bulletins and you may want to tap into the bands listed on our Top 40. You'll always find the performers at our next gig right up the top. At the other end you'll find bands that have recently played, followed by acts, who want to play at B@M. Send us a comment if you like them and they maybe get the go.
Lastly: PLEASE VOTE AGAINST DAYLIGHT SAVING! It prevents proper FX lighting at outdoors concerts before 9pm in summer. Especially for support bands. It’s gotta go!!! Nag your elders if you can’t vote yet! Go viral on it and e-mail all your friends!
Peace, The Terminator
