I don't really think they sound like the Smiths that much at all. They have their own thing going on. Kinda Smiths meets Jesus and Mary Chain meets the Buzzcocks meets The Ramones. This is a great band anyways. I like music because I think it's good... These guys are great and know how to write an amazing hook. I have no problem with bands playing great music influenced by great bands. If you do, you are lame and like things for the wrong reasons...
they are good, but absolutely nothing new. I appreciate that they are filling a gap that has been vacant now for urm...20 years maybe. I also appreciate that a band doesnt have to be 'new' and 'innovative' or 'different' just to be good. That said, they are nothing special. If you like this band please see: jesus and mary chain, buzzcocks, smiths......new wave......
@FiLninja Finally some recognition. Also thank you for turning what I thought was a fair and measured comment into typical youtube nonsense. I appreciate that the world may seem like a dark place for you right now with you dad being an alcoholic and your mom being on anti depressants but it will get better. And when that day comes maybe you will have something a little more constructive to say.
Just remember, dont forget to swallow all the pills, otherwise you might wake up.
@gunch533 mate, you could say they are a rip off band, but not of the smiths at all. heavenly, the pastels, belle and sebastian, velocity girl.. yeah... but not the smiths

Smiths? J&M Chain? Buzzcocks? Ramones?
Uh, no, but at least you're in the right decade. Try Biff Bang Pow (Someone Stole My Wheels, He Don't Need That Girl) or Felt (Down But Not Yet Out)

i think the voice sounds better on the LP - maybe the sound mixing was shite on the night as they say in the business?
