Van Sepia

Cross Stravinsky and Led Zeppelin, or Beethoven and The Kinks, then choose one dependant on your mmod.

Van Sepia are a gonna be a good band to follow. They have some great concepts and ideas which lie behind a fresh British rock sound. These concepts never seem to be important to begin with, but they are what sets bands apart in the long run. Than Smith: Bass, vocals, acoustic guitar. Amaro Racloz: Lead guitar. Justin Sloan: Drums.

Story behind the song

Igor Stravinsky, "I drink so much people should call me Strawhiskey". The song's not about drinking though, it is about stealing other people's musical ideas to have some fun.

Lyrics

Two hours from London
And the passenger's alone

A good burgular doesn't imitate he steals
And I'll beat it from, I'll beat it from you.

Strawhiskey, on Boscombe Pier.

Two hours from London
And the passage home is closed
The highwaymen came down
And took everything they owned.
