A heady mix of Beefheart, Birthday Party and The Fall this band are amazingly shambolic yet highly accomplished. When you see them live you are transfixed by their demented, howling lead singer as he strides across the stage like a preacher gone insane. Lesser musicians would be overshadowed by such a figure but each member gives their all to create a chaotic, groggy blues style, cathartic din.
