if you want an idea of their sound, take a franz ferdinand verse guitar riff, add a chorus in the vein of dandy worhols and overlay vocals from kele from bloc party. the result isn't a sound you've never heard, but it's polished and constructed solidly. and i would be shocked if you don't have "there's something i keep forgetting..." stuck in your head.

Bloody hell mate! I know that lead singer! We used to sniff paint back in primary school in Dingwall. We used to call him Red, based on his color preference for huffing .
Good job Red!
