I was finding it hard to take a band signed to a label called Spirit Of Spike Island seriously but these guys have a couple of MASSIVE tunes.
Every track they’ve released so far is an absolute rip off of someone, especially ‘Deeper Than Holy’ which basically sounds like a lost early Verve tune, but I just can’t get enough of them.
New single ‘Blu’ was released today and is yet another great song.

Are we sure it's not Richard Ashcroft singing  Deeper Than Holy sounds just like The Verve. |

Yeah the first track sounded too much like a verve clone to me.

This lot have just been added to the Knebworth lineup. First up on Friday, it’ll be a seminal moment in British history.
Whereas Mahoney is creaming his pants over some nonce crawling about the floor. I know who I’d be listening to when it comes to up and coming bands.

Tremendous dedication and support SJ. Keep up the good work.
This is far more impressive than when Mahoney tried to finance a global Guerilla marketing campaign with £2 quid to promote shit horse

Only just realised a few of their videos are filmed in my home town? What's that about I thought they were from Manchester?
