Has anyone ever seen these guys play live?

Man, was I ever impressed by their new CD. They are coming to Vancouver in March and I personally can not wait.

Another one of those gem bands that fly under the radar of the mainstream.

Anyone else here have a chance to give them a listen?

That guitar players fro is pretty much the only think they have going for them.

I'm all about rock, and maybe it was just the recording, but its inaudible, and almost no chord progression. Just my deal, not everyone will like everything.

The recording is a bit grainy, but I thought that the energy made up for it during that performance.

Fair is fair though, and musical tastes are diverse.

Their myspace for anyone who is interested:

Wolf Like Me, was my favorite song of 2006.

Will they be coming to Calgary?

ha, i see that guy and his fro on the train all the time.

I woudlnt really say they are "flying under the radar"...in the indie world (which lets be honest, is just another form of mainstream these days) they are pretty big. I remember going to a concert in the summer, where a good 25-30,000 people came out to see them play....I would hardly consider that under the radar.

Either you meant 2006 or that song is utterly spellbinding.
