You can’t judge a book by its cover. You can’t make the word love.
You can’t eat the word food…a band of 4 like-minded gentlemen who have been operating on the periphery of the Glasgow music scene for the last few years.
The sound they produce can best be summed up in words unhindered by sentences;
Melodic
Energetic
Positive
Enthusiastic
Sharp
Witty
Upbeat and playful are some that have been used to describe them.
At the core burns the spirit of Punk, the ghost of Psychedelia and the ingredient ultimately essential to them, individuality. The culmination of these and their respective musical personalities creates an intriguing feast. Though in its basic form it is guitar based rock, but with lyrics that deal not with the clichés often attributed to this style. A wide range of subjects are addressed from the pursuit of hope and the shaving of monsters (metaphorically or otherwise).
You can’t eat the word food hope to be bothering a hi-fi nearby soon.
