So I haven't heard anything about or by this band other than that a friend of mine who has rather reliable taste says they're good. I read the article on allmusic.com about them but it wasn't particularly helpful.
An excerpt:
Postmodern to the core, this is an ironic name; little of what this band plays resembles standard blues. There is, however, a blues feel to what they play, meaning that in many instances they appropriate aspects of the blues (very often clichés) and incorporate them into their anarchic, noisy sound.
This makes me feel like they're a bit like some of the White Stripes material (let's not get into a discussion of the Stripes in this thread, if you please).
But if anyone out there knows anything about them, fill me in, would ya? I gotta give 'em credit, it's a good name.
