Caught them on a HMV listening post some months back.
At first listen they sounded like a decent guitar rock outfit.
I considered buying the album.
By the fifth track (snippet) you realise that you *have* heard it all before.

Status Quo for the younger generation.
Jive Bunny with pretentions.
Karaoke with guitars.

That said, the same can be said for most of the guitar rock groups* getting the headlines at the mo. 'Retro' has alot to answer for.
(* typically those whose name starts with The….)

Saw them live in the QMU in Glasgow a while back .. the drummer was fantastic, just a shame the band & the music didn't match his enthusiasm & playing..
