Sounds Like
Swish and Flick sounds like a debauched party in the Slytherin common room after defeating Gryffindor for the quidditch cup. In other words, like Cookie Galore using a time-turner to go back to the 80's to make rap music with Bernard Sumner and Rick Rubin as their producers.

Who are Swish and Flick?
SWISH
AKA Astoria Greengrass-Malfoy (That's right, wee-oches! I'm married to Draco!)
The MC master mind of this project, kickin' the brand new flava in yer expandable ear. She graduated from Hogwarts as a Slytherin. When Swish wrocks out, she is the embodiment of herself at age 16, in her 6th year at school (sort of like the memory of Tom Riddle from his diary). That was the year when Hogwarts was under the regime of a Slytherin headmaster who turned a blind eye to all her naughtiness. Swish raps about her extracurricular activities at Hogwarts such as snogging Draco Malfoy, sneaking out at night to have torrid affairs with Death Eaters, drinking firewhiskey, getting into fights, and engaging in general debauchery.
FLICK
AKA Un-named Slytherin in the Background
The sexy guitarist and robot vocalist.

If anyone hasn't bought "In the House of Slytherin" yet I advise them to GET IT NOW! I've been listening to it for a solid month and still can't get enough of it!
i didn't go to leakycon :( but i maintain (without any experience or knowledge) that watching one of your shows would have to be one of the best experiences in wrock/tronica. your songs have to have some nicotine in em!
the LeakyCon song makes me wish i was going so much instead of being stuck here doing exams hahah :( we've got some new songs up actually and we'd love you to have a listen. x
