Psychedelic punky stuff from rural Scotland
Seminal (careful with that there word, boy) rural punk band from early 80s Galloway (Scotland), line-ups have come and gone over the years but we have tried to remain true to our ethos: "Four chords good, three chords best". As the available pool of contemporary local musical talent has gone into retirement the average age of the band has reduced. This year it is 28!

Story behind the song
The trouble with sings is they're too long, we moaned - some of us we're reared on Yes and Genesis when they we're still thinking about what they wrote instead of how to produce it nicely for the AOR market. We thought this was short and snappy, until we heard Half Japanese :-( This song, and our determination to play it several times in any one gig may also have contributed to the Creetown riot of 1982.
Lyrics
The trouble with songs Is they're too long This one's not.
