I saw the vid for "I believe in a thing called love" while flipping past MTV a couple years ago, and was like, "WOW, this is the best hair metal glam parody Ive ever seen!!", thinking that it was some sort of MTV in house thing. I mean, they got no exposure over here, just the single on MTV and no airplay.

So Im trying to find it again on Youtube, which was easy enough, and discover that theyre an actual band.

I cant believe they didnt get hooge stateside. Glammy cock rock is the best.

Theyve split up now, the main lead dude is trying to get a place to represent England in the Euro Vision Song Contest...

Hell come crying back to the band I suspect. Or theyll get Sammy Hagar to front them.

Ive got their two albums

First album is awesome!

They are utter sh*t.  Humourus, entertainment and a laugh yes, good band, no.

They are the most overated overhyped nonsense to come out of the music industry for a long time imho.

They are one of those bands, that I said to myself when I first came across them, people will have forgotten them in a couple years time.

BULLsh*t, THEY ARE AWESOME!!!!

No kidding, Ive got it on right now turned up to 11.  :mrgreen:

I know its part self-parody, but its a gas. Nigel Tufnel would be proud.

i didnt mind them tbh, the first album was very good and i quite liked the xmas song effort they did a couple of years ago aswell, better than the pop idol sh*te the won.

Actually im wrong. They are still together and max will be happy.... They are making a 3rd album. Just read it in Kerrang today

Happy happy joy joy!



Its like milk and cookies. Sooo comforting.

I quite like them actually - got their first album a while back too

I got their first album. And when their second album came out I found they had already included it on the first one to save me having to buy it !

My current favorite on the album has to be "Love on the rocks, with no ice".  

The whole vibe is bringing back memories of the shameless cock rock of the early 80s. Scorpions, Whitesnake, Ratt, etc. These guys are actually better in some ways. Still, I dont know if they can beat Mötley Crue on the Shout at the Devil tour. That was spectacularly camp (not that I realized it at the time ).

It certainly starts off well, grabs your attention. Great glam rock riffage.

Then I got bored after a minute or so.  That and I found it harder to hear what he was singing with the constant falsetto.  Now I dont want to hear it again.
