If you ever get a chance to see them, GO! They are awesome live...incredible musicians. Its really cool to watch them create their unique sounds on stage, it gave me an ever greater appreciation of the album.

Awesome band...hopefully they have a follow up to Mirrored on the horizon.

I saw them last year in a small bar, and was right up at the stage next to the keyboard guy. Talk about getting your ears blown away (in a good sense).

Race-in and Race-out are the best tracks in my opinion. The rest seems like it would be something my friends and I would make when we are really drunk (except for the drumming, my god the drumming) and think it sounds awesome, but actually its not. I think these guys should switch to the green. That might be more listenable.

They are without a doubt one of the best live acts I've ever seen, I've never felt s energised and elated after a gig!

Gonna see them again at Benicassim festival in Spain in July. Can't wait.

while i can appreciate the humor in what you said (if it was meant to be funny), i have to say that if you think you and your friends could play your instruments like the members in battles (take tonto, TIJ, or any of the songs from their first two EP's) while you're drunk, then you guys must be virtuosos at your instruments, because the skill required to play their music is pretty hard to match.

yeah, that was a bit of a stretch. i just can't get into that kind of atonal plucking guitar sound that they have going. i do love race in and race out though. it pisses me off, in race out, just at the song is ending the drummer starts going crazy and i wish it would keep going for like another two minutes. i am definitely looking forward to their next album.
