Any fans, I got into these guys after i saw FOB and to be honest they are just so good. There songs just grab my attention in a unique way and there massive hooks which are addictive. My favorite track of theirs is 'Gives You Hell' Or 'move Along'. Two very different songs yet two great pieces of work.
