Anyone a fan?
I've always loved their song 'half full glass of wine'.
Checking out samples of their albums, not bad at all.

  • Love the new album... Definitely going for a Beatles redux but its pretty original none the less.

    They're pretty good. Only know a handful of songs. Did see them in concert a few years back. I was there mainly to see the opening band though :lol:

    Yep :)
    If you want to take a further leap down that production style try 'Melody's Echo Chamber' - it's what happens when Paris meets Perth (chic meets isolation). Some music takes time to metabolize...
  • Some other side projects of theirs that don't stray too far from what they already have goin.

    Pond: This is less Psychedelic and more 70's rock. Along the lines of T. Rex or currently King Tuff
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h6cSvOfwxQs

    Allbrook/Avery: This is more of a freewheeling song writing band with a grab-bag of styles. Album is currently download only. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gFqDAPbzQIY

    'Lonerism' was easily one of my favorite albums of 2012. These guys are awesome, and hoping to see them in DC later this month!

    The show tonight was fantastic!! They really pull you in live. Entertaining jams and a great crowd, couldn't ask for much more! The opener, The Growl, were awesome as well!

    Everything they've done has been great. I'm seeing them Monday at a really small venue in Houston and cannot wait...

    sounds like a great three days.

    Beavis: Heh heh. Oh yeah. Yeah! Get those spoons out of my face before I shove them up your butt!
    Butthead: Huh huh.

    Difficult to not hear their music these days, but I'm doing my level best to avoid Tame Impala until I see them at Coachella . Just love having my baptism to a band be a live show .

    This band needs to be talked about more! Great stuff here. Going to see them in Philly next month. I think I prefer their first album over the second but they are both great.

    Best band of the 10's so far in my opinion! They have all the right influences and manage to sound fresh.

    I've listened to the new single literally twenty times already. This band keeps getting better. Can't wait to see them for the 4th time (at GovBall).

    Also, the youtube version has crappy quality. You might as well find the free DL.
