Member Since	8/5/2007
Band Website	www.comptrollerrecords.com
Band Members	jody and ben and the machine
Influences	the nueva cats. the sharx. nina simone. the velvet underground. the talking heads. the kinks.
Sounds Like	"I happen to find this sound totally endearing and cute, especially when a girl sings about ice cream and sweetness and love over a simple and blistering riff, like they do on 'insatiable'. It’s almost as if they’re envisioning some anthem for a 14-year old girl, re-cast in an alternate universe of butterflies and chocolate and dreams that don’t actually exist in real life. And kudos to them for tackling one of my favorite songs, the Talking Heads’ 'Naïve Melody' and closing it with the solo from the Stop Making Sense version." - Nicholas at Gapers Block " I feel like I could walk into this song!" - Anonymous Audience Member
Record Label	comptroller records

b. rock	Dec 13 2007 2:23 AM aah. it's so satisfying to have a new band to be in love with.
The Fake Fictions	Dec 10 2007 12:17 PM the spectacles are a holy vision of golden vistas and verdant reverberations - recommended. let's never play with any other bands.
