This Cardiff band, produced by the great Steve Albini, plays indie-rock with a punk urgency very close to the gods of the past (even though there's talk of a re-union) known as the Pixies.
Yes, you read that right, it's them. These Anglo-Saxon guys manage to put in their songs ideas and genius that only the greatest possess. This is an exceptional album, from the first to the last track, and devastating in its impact!
Overflowing with ingenious guitar raids, melodies that stick with you, breath-taking accelerations, bursts of pure rage. A masterpiece that everyone should listen to, because records like this are and will always be few and far between.

01 Lightsabre Cocksucking Blues (01:51)
Eat what you are while you're falling apart
And it opened a can of worms
The gun's in my hand and I know it looks bad
But believe me I'm innocent
I'm fearful I'm fearful I'm fearful of flying
And flying is fearful of me
I covered my eyes when she told me the news
Turning me on with my lightsabre cocksucking blues
Are you coming?
Nicotine stained on account of her crutch
And I'm aching from fucking too much
I know what I do but it all points to you
Did you sell me to wanderlust?
I'm fearful I'm fearful I'm fearful of flying
And flying is fearful of me
I covered my eyes when she told me the news
Turning me on with my lightsabre cocksucking blues
Are you coming?
03 Collagen Rock (02:52)
The little kid pissed on the big kids porch
He thinks he's amazing he's rubbish of course
But one of those bands got paid I heard
One of those bands got paid
It's easy to say now their trainers seemed fine
and their hair was a fucking delight
But one of those bands got paid I heard
One of those bands got fake tits
Collagen rock
One of those bands got legs like you
And one of them got the stare
But one of those bands got found I heard
In a hole in Aberdare
Its easy to say now their trainers seemed fine
and their hair was a fucking delight
But one of those bands got paid I heard
One of those bands got fake tits
Collagen rock
You've got a mouth got a wonderful mouth
You've got a mouth got a wonderful mouth you got a
Collagen rock
04 What We've Learned (01:54)
He's a wise guy flys right by because
He put it all in to get on television
He's a wise guy flys right by because
He put it all in to get on television
Including, but not exclusive to
Should have known better and we do
He's got nothing left to say because
He gave it all up to be on television
He's got nothing left to say because
He gave it all up to be on television
Including, but not exclusive to
Should have known better and we do
05 Day of the Deadringers (03:01)
This one's for the patriots
The new wave good time girls
And if it wasn't for the decepticons
They'd rule the fucking world
In the midst of all the killing and skineating
W we forgot about the loving
If I had to choose a woman then I think I'd choose religion
If I had to give you something then I think I'd give you nothing
If I had to give you something then I think I'd go to hell
This ones for the dancers
The dockers and the dykes
And if it weren't for Asian basin sales
They couldn't sleep at night
In the midst of all the touching and kissing
We forget the penetration
If I had to drive you somewhere then I'd drive you to the station
If I had to give you something then I think I'd give you nothing
If I had to give you something then I think I'd go to hell
In the midst of all the killing and skineating
We forgot about the loving
If I had to choose a woman then I think I'd choose religion
If I had to give you something then I think I'd give you nothing
If I had to give you something then I think I'd
In the middle of the action they reversed the interaction
And the audience decided ignorance actually was bliss
You're a fortress in a foreign land you should ask for it
Like you mean it like you mean it
In the middle of the ohmygoditsgone
We talked in code to get along
Private riddles for private courts
08 To Hell With Good Intentions (02:25)
My love is bigger than your love
We take more drugs than a touring funk band
Sing it
My love is bigger than your love
Sing it
My love is bigger than your love
Sing it
My band is better than your band
We've got more songs than a song convention
Sing it
My love is bigger than your love
Sing it
My love is bigger than your love
Sing it
And we're all going straight to hell
My dad is bigger than your dad
He's got eight cars and a house in Ireland
Sing it
My love is bigger than your love
Sing it
My love is bigger than your love
Sing it
When we gonna torch the restaurant?
Sing it
When we gonna pay the guide dog?
Sing it
My love is bigger than your love
Sing it
My love is bigger than your love

And we're all going straight to hell
My love is bigger than your love
We take more drugs than a touring funk band
Sing it
My love is bigger than your love
Sing it
My love is bigger than your love
Sing it
When we gonna torch the restaurant?
Sing it
When we gonna get excited?
Sing it
My love is bigger than your love
Sing it
My love is bigger than your love
Sing it
And we're all going straight to hell
10 The World Loves Us and Is Our Bitch (02:23)
You need some cokecokecokecoke inspiration
For your seven year itch
She said its just that your songs been playing too long
The world loves us and is our bitch
Hiding in the water
Under the sea
Under the water
We've got all the money
Hello
You need some condescension
For your elegant witch
She said its just that your songs been playing too long
The world loves us and is our bitch
Accidents happen where the rain won't go
God is a colour that we can't let go
And faith is admission that we just can't win
And we are just a part of this
And we are just a part of this
Relatives matter when your legs don't work
Ky ky std
Alcohol matters when you can't be free
And love is eternal 'til it isn't anymore
Love is eternal 'til it isn't anymore
Love is eternal 'til it isn't anymore
Love is eternal 'til it isn't anymore
I try to cry but I'm just too tall
I try to cry but I'm just too tall
Cos accidents happen where the rain won't go
Accidents happen where the rain won't go
11 Alan Is a Cowboy Killer (04:09)
Pull up my pants
Now the camera crew has gone
In your statement to the police
Tell them how you turned me on
But you were such an ugly child
You were such an awkward child
But you were such a stupid child
We should've cottoned on
Alan is a cowboy killer
Take up Tai Chi
Now your favorite pet has died
We had crazy fucking times
'Till her visa card expired
But you were such an ugly child
You were such an awkward child
But you were such a stupid child
We should've cottoned on
Alan is a cowboy killer
Wipe up his mess
Pay your fluffers by the yard
How you're paying for your peace
How you're paying for your peace
But you were such an ugly child
You were such an awkward child
But you were such a stupid child
We should've cottoned on
That Alan is a cowboy killer (x15)
Alan is a cowboy killer
13 Chases (01:47)
Don't go fucking in the barn because the barn's on fire
Look out below
Look at them go
