i'll second that :thumb: saw them a while back and it blew me away... especially a fan of 'letter from god' aswell as the lyrics, i love the radiohead deconstruction, i know radiohead is like an untouchable in terms of sampling it gets slated for just doing that, but i think it works brilliantly.

hes a nice guy too, not as up his arse as you might think listening to him

go to 'Concerts' then type 'Dan' in the search box.

I saw them live at Latitude last year. Just superb...

Yeah, really liking these guys at the minute. There's an album due out V soon I understand. I don't think it's there anymore, but there was some "spoken word" stuff on the Myspace page (just like reading poetry) which I thought was superb... Definitely one to watch. :thumb:

the had a decent amnount of radio play with 'thou shalt always kill' last year, but it was a bit of a gimmicky song, the new one on myface is promissing, bit more production and a bit more shiney, but definatly in the right direction.

its slightly odd live as youve got the dude speaking and the other bloke on a laptop mixing samples... it dosnt look very impressive as he could be just playing the whole thing as one song, but ive seen people doing this before and if you can get a view of the screen its alot more impressive... every loop/sample is put into a multi player application one at a time and they have to set all the values (speed, how many times it loops, and sync it to start at the right time) and its all done live with upto 10 different bits... makes more sense if you can see the screen, but i thought it was ace :D
