After listening to this very intetesting band for a couple of years, I finally got to see them live at a very small venue in Kingston a few weeks ago. 

I was introduced to them by a very good friend who's band supported them a while back and it was a privilege to hear them show casing material for their third album which they are recording at this moment  (or roundabout).

They note Pink Floyd as an influence and are well worth a listen.  Very exciting stuff!

Very nice. I see they've been supporting PT. There's a link on their MySpace to their web site. They get a bit too close to Coldplay from time to time, but without the whining. They've released 2 albums, both available on Napster.

Hmmm, not sure about the comparison Coldplay, they've got a lot more bottle than that.

I went to see them again a month ago.  Third album Frames, released last year, is a treat!

I've seen then live twice and they were amazing!  Very dark, deep, loud and excellent musicianship from all members.

I recently made a punt and bought Frames which included a live DVD. I was very impressed. If any comparisons should be made I'd say they were closer to Radiohead but heavier. An excellent band that I will be looking to go see myself.
