    Wow. Didn't realise there was another album due. They're fairly prolific.
    Great live band as well - wonder if they might be touring come Picnic-time?

    Agreed, these guys are really good. The latest album is full of those "happy music/miserable lyrics"-type tunes that I'm a complete sucker for, but I reckon Satanic Panic in the Attic is probably the best place to start.

    I love this band. If they were added the electric picnic lineup, I would fork over that hideous amount of money and go for definite!
