It's no good. I have to have a thread about the awesome british band that are criminally overlooked. This probably isn't even the right area for them as their music touches on so many aspects. Taking in epic 10+ minute songs of sweeping build up's to trip hop edged melancholia and back through Radiohead tinged ditties and Pink Floyd infused Post rock sounds.

A sample of their genre flitting sound:






Recommened albums? All of them! Their latest 'Controlling Crowds' is another cracking album. The best band in Britain ATM? damn close I say.

Masters in the art of a build up. Underrated indeed.

They don't write hit singles and that's why they aren't as big as say Coldplay yet they tread very similar ground with their emotionally tinged tunes.

I see more Radiohead in them, a nice combination of OK Computer/Kid A stuff.

Alright jackhammer, you've talked them up pretty big, and your recommendations are usually fantastic. I'll download an album or two and get back to you on what I think.

I only have "You All Look The Same To Me" (which is pretty great BTW). Which one would be the next best to check out?

Never heard of them before! I like it, especially the second track you've posted

they're difficult to find album wise, any ups? i only have Londinium.

Expect a PM.

Anyone else need PM's just holler.
