Greedy Bastards, Save Your Souls! Lord Rothermere, has it not occurred to you we may not want to be indoctrinated fools patronising your disciples so dumb but why should we succumb to Tory voting scum? who took the heart and soul from a nation on the dole you say that we'd be better with the country in your hands we don't think so! decent people don't think so! Greedy bastards, save your souls! from the safety of your cosy country homes Tories in red ties... Tories in blue ties... Tories in yellow ties... it’s all the same disguise! You took the heart and soul from a nation on the dole you say that we'd be better with the country in your hands we don't think so! decent people know you'll hang the redskins from the trees with freedom and impunity you'll close the borders, lock the doors protect the empire, guard the shores watch the blackshirts clench their fists to stop the oiks and the communists ignorance and hate prevails invented by the Daily Mail (Lyrics by Paul Towler)

about

"A rare beast, melodic pop with bite! ...they share Paul Heaton’s knack for sneaking barbed social commentary into the most innocent sounding of melodies"
(Vive Le Rock)

"The band champion the poor and downtrodden in their lyrics... it's a shame more bands aren't telling tales of what it means to live in the UK in 2010"
(Sounds XP)

"Jangly guitars with ascerbic political lyrics. Its' refreshing to hear such venom in C86 clothing"
(Sheffield Phonographic Corporation)

"Lilting Americana lite... a musical landscape packed with everyman douchebags content to witter on about real life's tedium"
(Venue Magazine)

"A twisted take on guitar-pop, mixing jangly guitars with a hybrid of alt-country, dark brooding lyrics and no-frills charm - their roots are in 'C86' era indie-pop having previously founded 80's twee-pop veterans The Haywains"
(Moles Bands)
