This is a Welsh Indie band that mixes rockabilly with punk and the outcome is psychobilly. Some pretty funky, outlandish, but cool music.

Their stage persona is a bit frightening, but it goes with the music. They sing a lot of parody of spooky and scary things, and put those things to some really cool southern/punk sounds.

They are not able to tour in the USA because of the lead singer's (Mark Philips "Sparky") criminal history. On their first USA tour, Spark set a fire outside the hotel and was arrested for pinching a 16 year old girl's butt, and was convicted of molesting a minor. So as a result, they can no longer tour in the USA. Too bad,,,,they are fantastic!

They have 8 studio albums to their credit, but I would recomend obtaining:

Not your usual "run of the mill" band, but give them a listen, and you may just giggle a bit and enjoy them!!

:bump:

What can I say...:lmao:...they look like the walked right off the set of "The Road Warrior".

The music is okay, I wished I had played them last night when I had a couple of pops under my belt, they seem like a fun group.

Don't know if I would get any of their albums though Magic.;)
