...I love 'em! Many will hate them (Justin Hawkins high-pitched vocals take awhile to get used too!) but they have masses of self-belief & big promotion. They are on nearly every UK festival bill this year plus the UK Purple/Skynyrd dates.
They are like Freddie Mercury meets AC/DC via the mighty Quo
New single 'Growing On Me' is out in the UK on 16th June - go get it!
Anyone else have any views on the band?

Ha! Ha! Boy are this band PANTS
Never heard such sub-standard Quo riffing in a long time (well since the last Quo album actually...) If this is the future of rock I am off to a dance festival

...like I said. You'll ever love or loathe this band...
PS They even pop up on the new Wildhearts albums as well. Do the band ever sleep?
PPS Their bass player is a deadringer for original Saxon bassist Steve Dawson!
