Synopsis

Product Description
An experimental noise rock/punk/emo group fro Auckland, New Zealand. They are known for mixing pop hooks and structures with with elements of noise rock and experimental music and for their exciting live performances.

Formed in 2001, the band began by playing puck house parties and low-profile shows before being discovered by highly-acclaimed New Zealand independent record label, Flying Nun Records. Two EPs and two albums later, the band found their stride with their latest record, Crazy? Yes! Dumb? No! released by the label in New Zealand in 2006.

The band has shared New Zealand stages with the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, The White Stripes, Death From Above, TV on the Radio, Blood Brothers, and the Black Lips, among others. At the 2007 New Zealand Music Awards, the band won five Tui awards (the New Zealand Grammy equivalent) including best rock group, best album, and best rock album, as wel as winning best album cover and best music video for the single "Crazy? Yes! Dumb? No!"

The band has relocated to Portland, Oregon. A fall 2008 tour is planned.
