A friend of mine introduced me to this band, they're very good. Think Tsunami Bombs, except with a better singer and a heavier sound and better lyrics. It's not really poppy like TB.

They have 3 songs streaming. They Live, Panic in the Year Zero, and The Girl Born Without a Face. Bury the Tooth of the Hydra and a Skeleton Army Will Arise is a really really good song, but it's not streaming on the site. They're all really good, my favourite of those three are They Live. Enjoy and tell me what you think of them. :)

Went to the site and tried to listen to some demos but my browser dicked. I liked the song I heard, though. (called They Live, I think, started playing automatically)

Yup, that's the song that plays automatically. Glad you liked it. :D

You like those "unknown" bands huh Rye?

I do. xD I don't really hunt for unknown bands, but people tell me about them and usually I get hooked to them.

Well, I really dig the singers voice. She sounds so much like Cyndi. :love:

Great discover Rye, maybe I'll buy the album. xD

That was horribly, horribly annoying. She's got a voice that kind of rapes your ears. Not that I could do better, but apart from the odd vaguely catchy chorus it doesn't seem to have much going for it.

And the singer from Tsunami Bomb is waaay hotter :D

xD I thought that was a term reserved only for Avril Lavigne's voice and occasionally Ashlee Simpson's.

I wouldn't put her in their league of suckiness, but she's no Christina Scabbia.

True. I like her voice, but it's because it's very different. Her voice isn't amazing though.
