Formed in late 2004, in East London,[1] they released a limited 7" single on the small Cigarette Music label in Feb 2005. Even though distribution was limited they received worldwide attention and got played on late-night Indie radio programmes all over the world, such as Rodney Bingenheimer on KROQ-FM.
2006 brought along some line-up changes. They released their 2nd single in March 2007 on Cigarette Music.[2]
Their sound has been compared to The Velvet Underground, The Jesus and Mary Chain and New Order. The UK music paper NME called them "..Blondie for the Libertines generation". The band themself describes their sound as "Motorcycle Pop".[3]
