What are the opinions of this band on these here boards?
I was initially willing to discount them based purely on their name, however after many listens to their album, I've found it has really really grown on me and I enjoy it immensely.

From the Archive - DiScover: Let Our Enemies Beware
i saw them
at Bristol Academy however it was about 2/3am during a Ramshackle night and the 3rd club/venue we went to, my memory is rather hazzy to say the least but they were great fun live and since listening Properly to them since i enjoy. not incredible and they're not reinventing the wheel but they're good fun and i wish them well.
Mr Understanding is like a brilliant indie pop lithium
i love them, the album's a great solid debut
The album is great.
I got it the same time as I got the Cutting Pink with Knives album, so I didn't really listen to it properly for a few weeks.
Brilliant album though, every track is really good.
I am seeing them support Maximo Park at the Forum next month.
One of the best in their respective bracket
the album is a brilliant debut unfourtenetly they are in an area where they can go one of 2 directions...
THE CENTRE OF A STRAIGHT LINE??!??!
I like them more than I should
They were really good at KCLSU
on Tuesday. Quite a short set but they were very tight and there was a really nice atmosphere. Good clean fun.
at KCLSU the singer started
completely out of tune and this is something that really pulled me off but he got a bit bteer by the end.
He really pulled you off?
Etc etc LOL blah
I quite liked them
when I saw them at Wireless last year and have liked what I've heard since.
Will have to buy the album.
When i heard the name
i was convined they would be on the pidgeon detectives/holloways style indie rubbish but to my surprise they are a thoroughly decent band and one of the few "new" bands that i listen to.
Agree
This is how I was expecting them to sound but was pleasantly suprised.
Really fun band..........
I was talking to their guitarist outside a pub in Winchester for ages about a month ago without realising who he was.
When he mentioned being in 'a band', I asked him what they were called and it turned out they were thes guys. The album is great, they remind me of the Spinto Band in a bizarre way.
Yep, Spinto, The Little...
..Ones, etc but I'd suggest 'Little Death's US indie equivalent has to be 'Pershing' by Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin. Top tunes agogo all the way through - if you like Pete you'll love Boris
boris are much better
.
also enjoy them..
Come on Feet is a smile on your face dance around the room tune.. Yesiamaduck is right about the one of two ways thing though..
They are really good live
Saw them at Carling Academy Islington.
Really good gig - bar me getting my knee crushed into the stage - the guitarist helped me up which was rather nice.
they're ok
although I really fail to see what all of the fuss is about
irritating after liking them initially.
stupid name
album's mixed
the high tempo pop songs are amazing
but the low tempo slow downed songs are boring and shit
Just listened to the album again........
still LOVE it.
What's the ep like?
I saw them play in the ABC in Glasgow,
but I was pissed and don't remember much about it. I've not heard their album or anything.
To be honest, I assumed they were rubbish going by their dreadful name.
^ I assumed the same
However I think they are quite good. Would love to see them live to confirm this though.
Might give them another chance..
