I'm digging these guys a lot ... anyone else heard 'em? It's very moody stuff reminiscent of Turin Brakes, Starsailor and a bit of British Sea Power and even a nod to The Smiths. The lead singer is none other than Barry (XTC, Shriekback) Andrew's son Finn Andrews. Sure his vocal stylings are perhaps an acquired taste, but so were his dad's! I finally discovered their '04 album [i]The Runaway Found[/i] and was quite impressed. There's a newer album [i]Nux Vomica[/i] I need to check out.
A few recommended cuts:
The Wild Son - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KDlDQ0YkvK0
Lavinia - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1MBph5A2jkU
The Leavers Dance - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gsb-CE3bgbs
Vicious Traditions - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ZPeX2FVJak
(Nevermind that some of the YouTube clips are not "official")
