omigod...wot is it with that takapuna grammar? It spawned these dudes, plus The Veils, Electric Confectionaires, White Birds and Lemons (most of them anyway!), and new ones coming through like Mareya and Joe, and Earthbound roots... I reckon there's something in the water there...! haha!
THE CHECKS KICKS ARSE!!THE SOUND IS SOOOO SEXY>> bay500..u earlier comment..are u o.k?? u wouldnt know good sound and vocal if u heard it.This is the best shit ive heard out of NZ in so long,i nearly gave up..RRRRESPECT!!!
Best band to come out of NZ definitely... beats all the limp indie shit that's flooded our market recently (Naked and Famous for example).
These guys are brilliant, better than Crowded House, Split Endz, you name it. Please keep it up guys, I'm loving your new stuff!

i'm sorry, but the vocals ruin this. his voice is good, but he's shouting half the words, it's like a really off form jagger.
