If you are around 30-ish... then check out their website http://www.theraconteurs.com and relive your first computer games, usually on the ZX Spectrum!!

even if you dont like their music give it a shot.... its great!!!!
oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    I agree, the website is really funky.

    I bet it was really difficult to do though, even though it looks so simple.

    yeah... dont know anything about web programming.. but i bet this was a bitch to do :)

    as soon as i went on it, i thought i had been transported back to my youth.... so i broke a few windows and chased someone with a dogshit on a stick :D .... just to get that feeling of youth back :)

    Yeah I've been there - it kind of reminds me when I was using my first PC - a Zenith Z-100 with Z-DOS (*before* MS-DOS, and definitely before windows!)

    Very cool site, but beyond that ... I just got the album today and like it very much. This summer's turning out to be a good one musically and this record is going to get a lot of play here.
