Great band - the boy Gedge is one of the most excellent people you're ever likely to meet. Seamonsters is probably their strongest album, superbly recorded by Albini, and Dalliance is the standout track.
Seen them quite a few times over the years. Sadly, they missed out NL on their recent Euro tour, so didn't get to see them this year.
The support band, Toquiwa, are worth catching too (although their old name "Pinky Piglets" was better).
