Saw them at Coachella in like 2006. Great sound, kind of like a cross between Joy Division and Cake or Violent Femmes or something.

I discovered them way back in about 2005 and same here, I really don’t know anyone else who knows them. Tear You Apart is my favorite, though as a female, I’m sure I should find it somewhat cringey.

Saw them in a small club before they released their first album. Loved how they took pieces of Joy Division, Killing Joke, Bauhaus and early Sisters of Mercy and mixed it into a snap shot of that era.

Ran into them in an after hours club after the show. Lead singer is hands down the nicest musician I've ever met. We touched on their influences but spent most of the night talking about relationships, old rnb and reggae music and the innovations that came out of it.

Great guys, good music.

I saw them open for Electric Six. I renamed them “Sounds Like Joy Division.”

Oh man, I remember discovering them on Myspace back in high school and loving them. Seen them twice, both back then. Once for This Is Blood and once for Valleyheart. I’m pretty sure I was the only person under 18 there at the first one. Such great music. I haven’t listened to them in a while but I heard someone drive by a few days ago with their windows down blasting them and it made me smile.

Absolutely. Got into them back in high school when their first album came out! Finally got to see them last year and they slayed 🦇 great band and of course tear you apart a staple of the goth club scene. Try going to a goth night you’ll find plenty of people who listen to them!
