You have to like them just for the cool band name. Why is Scotland such a hotbed of cool indie bands?

Thanks for the reminder Zill. They were one of my misses at SXSW this year where a lot of UK folk were buzzing about them. I told myself I'd try to catch up but forgot until now. I like their sound for sure.

Don't have any guess about the run of Scottish bands. Just very glad for one particular album - The Phantom Band's Checkmate Savage has been in heavy rotation.

Good find Zill.
