Hailed
in some quarters as the Next Manics, this supremely talented
and musically stunning foursome, have a passion and zeal reminiscent
of the Manics early work but are determined to stamp their own
brand of New UK Rock on the current music scene. This foursome
combine the early fire and energy of their Welsh counterparts,
with a surprising cocktail of harmonic clarity, worthy of, and
at times compared to, Stadium Acts such as U2, Guns 'N' Roses
& Simple Minds. They achieve deep impact wherever they play.
Influenced by bands as disparate as the Cult, the Cure, Nirvana
and Queen, through to the Mission and the Manic Street Preachers.
