    You may laugh at me when I say this but they are not from Britain. They're from New York. But like Jimmy Hendrix they've made it big here first.

    I do have to agree but they are a very good band. Filthy Gorgeous is on my playlist as I type.

    Oh yeah, they are not British. I don't know why I assumed that even though I knew the fact.

    Yeah I love that song.

    You seriously have no idea that it was originally a Pink Floyd song? I find that hard to believe...

    Anyway, The original destroys the cover in so many ways it's not funny.

    I have to agree with BKS, the Floyd version is a lot better. But they are a good band, despite that one slip up.

    I think they suck personally - but that is probably down to my taste in music.
    GARCIN: I "dreamt," you say. It was no dream. When I chose the hardest path, I made my choice deliberately. A man is what he wills himself to be.
    INEZ: Prove it. Prove it was no dream. It's what one does, and nothing else, that shows the stuff one's made of.
    GARCIN: I died too soon. I wasn't allowed time to - to do my deeds.
    INEZ: One always dies too soon - or too late. And yet one's whole life is complete at that moment, with a line drawn neatly under it, ready for the summing up. You are - your life, and nothing else.
