Just a little message. About our choice of name.

I'm seriously wondering what kind of person really gives a fuck enough about a bands name to refuse to listen to them. To me that's totally ridiculous. Its the same shit as bands being told they've jumped on a band wagon and copied the sound of other bands that they've never even heard of. If you take away the history and association, band names like Radiohead, The Beach Boys, The Smiths, The Beatles, The Cure, Talking Heads, Sonic Youth, My Bloody Valentine, Aphex Twin, Run DMC, Pixies, The Velvet Undergound, all sound a bit odd but they're great bands. Liking a band should never be about getting past a name. Its about their sound and their performance and the integrity, honesty and entertainment with which they do those things. If you don't like that element then fair enough and you have every right to say so and I respect that but to write off a band just by their name before hearing a note makes you look like an idiot. People who truly like discovering new music don't have primary concerns about a bands name or what they look like or what they wear. But, music is about performance and expression and some bands do choose to do that through their name or how they look or what they wear. For me thats great and the beauty about being in a band is that it is entirely your choice.

As it happens, I think our name is one of the simplest band names I have ever heard and I can tell you that it has no other connotations than the bare bones of what we do; Being in a band. We love it.

I think someone needs to have their smug head surgically removed from their arse.

Thanks a lot for the nice comments from people, hopefully see some of you on the tour in November.

LOve.
