Just heard this song for the first time on CBC's "DNTO" and while the host compared their sound to Blondie, I hear the ghosts of Martha & The Muffins circa 1981. Great melodic stuff and love the bass towards the end.

katie looks little bit like hillary swank in boys don't cry here,or is that just my sick mind?

anyway like them very much,that indy rock is really good,or better say was...shame they split up

@Creaulx they sound 100% like the smiths

She does look very Curtis-esque in this one, doesn't she?

[Imawakeitsmorning]

I'd say they're more curish expecially the guitar you can compare it stuff like, IN between days, i'd say joy division were far Darker and more industrial and the Organ are more poppy sounding.

reminds me of ian curtis' style of performing. they are rather joy division-esque. very cool
