Release & Reception

In 2007 the band played on an NME sponsored US tour with The Hold Steady and Art Brut.

The album received mainly positive reviews. British newspaper The Guardian awarded the album full marks, describing it as "an alternative dancefloor gem"[1]. Jeff Terich of Treble called the album "ecstatic, extravagant rock `n' roll", praising the bands ability to "lay down some fuckin' hits" and declaring them "the band that is giving rock a much-needed kick in the pants" [2]. British music magazine NME were also quick to praise the band, noting their "absolutely spiffo corkers-to-hummers ratio" (whatever that means)[3]. In their review of the "Suspicious Character" single, NME compared the band's sound to Fugazi fronted by Har Mar Superstar, calling the track a 'brilliant, raunchy slice of rock wonder' [4].
