Though they've been around for a few years now, this London-based quartet appeared quite suddenly on a U.K. scene already crowded with young upstart guitar-based bands declaring a mutual love for canyon rock, space rock, and solid '70s-era singer/songwriter balladry (others include fellow Brits
Delta,
Mojave 3, Four Storeys, Goldrush (formerly Whispering Bob), and Scottish guitar-rock bands like
Teenage Fanclub and fellow labelmates the Cosmic Rough Riders). Their lineup features former members of
Scala,
Seefeel, and Jupiter, an Australian shoegazer band. Their first full-length album, I Heard Myself in You, was produced by the band and Mads Bjerke, who (as of early 2001) has also been co-producing tracks by
Spiritualized. ~ Bryan Thomas
