One Liner: Like a David Bowie impersonator who only listened to 3 seconds of "Heroes."

Wikipedia Genre: No Wikipedia, but an article called it goth-glam that doesn't care.
Home: Scotland

Poster Position: 21
Weekend One Only.  Saturday.

Thoughts:  Oh yeah, I super hate this.  It is like if a high school theater program put together a homemade musical about what would happen if David Bowie fronted the Talking Heads that was concentrated on the way Bowie sounded during one strained moment of "Heroes," the Heads were on acid, and they had the local goth kid with an industrial fetish create the music.  It is awful.

A Scottish six-piece, I just read in an article, who does not care what the boomers think.  What about the Gen X'ers, the Millennials, or anyone else?  "With influences spanning from Scottish 80s post-punk legends The Associates, Simple Minds and Orange Juice to more recent female pop icons, notably Charli XCX, Grimes and St. Vincent, they’re not scared to wear these influences on their decorative, frilly white sleeves."  I'm going to give you some videos so that I can stop listening now.

"Cut Your Hair" is the top streamer at 361k.

And the other top track is "How Cool Are You" with 154k streams.

I'm glad that they appear to be having fun, but this ain't it for me.
