They were, at one point, the biggest UK indie band around, then vanished without a trace. Music is punky/psychobilly rock.

Hmm, their homepage has been hacked, so can't find samples just yet. Give me time....

Anyone heard (of) them? Expecting hatred/love from Brits....

Bleh. Better than a lot of the so-called indie shite plaguing the UK just now, but they did virtually nothing for me.

Dunno about the UK Matchbox, but there was a finnish Matchbox too. They're still pretty much the most notorious rockabilly band in Finland.

ROCKABILLY REBEL!

Ture, but doesn't mean that they're not overrated by the likes of NME and Q
