...although i have enjoyed their cds [especially "under the pipal tree"] i found them to be even better live. classic solely for that alone!

...start your mogwai/gybe! clone comments now.

they kind of sound like a mogwai/gybe! clone

for a 'japanese' 'psychedelic' 'rock' band, they sure are dull.

I enjoyed One Step More and You Die a lot (my girlfriend did not), their latest record [...] was a huge dissapointment - very dull kranky stuff.

The newest one is actually my favorite of theirs, but I'm used to being the contrarian.

i heard one song they did for peel a couple of months back and loved it. so i got the most recent album ... IIRC there's one moment of staggering, sublime wonder (can't remember what it is, though) and then a lot of not-unpleasant GYBE-ism. they're OK, no more than that.

Great live band. Never been much interested in their records, but I will see them live any chance I get. Loud guitar heaven.
