My first impression of this band, before ever having heard their music was “They’re adorable and they have such a clever name. I can dig that, now let’s see how they sound.” Since that initial impression however, I have been listening to their music on repeat. Every song that I have heard from them is simply musical perfection.
The vocals are flawless, the instrumentals tight, the overall sound is clean and sets the bar very high for any new band you hear after them. In other words, I wouldn’t want to follow them even if they were the opening act and I was the seasoned veteran.
They are HOT.
This band is one that you need to have on your radar, because they aren’t only going to catch fire, they’re going to be engulfed in FLAMES!
