    With a similar style, at times, to a cleaner, happier version of Garbage, and at other times, a funkier Grammatrain or Considering Lily, this Aussie foursome has some great ability. Produced by Al Dowthwaite (drummer of the great, but little known band Surprise), all sonics are quality, right down to the mass of distortion coating most of the tracks. And Diana Blythe's vocals are like cotton candy to my ears.
