    Been a fan of these guys since my friend told me to listen to Soldier On about 8 months ago. I got the album immediately. Only a couple songs I don't like. Other than that, some really, really good stuff.

    So boring, sorry. Australia has the worst indie rock/pop scene. Funny as that they formed at Wesley College though, rich kids in purple uniforms yeeaaaaaaaaa.

    SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET DIIIIIIIIIIIISSSSSSSSSSSSPOOOOOOOOOOOOSITIOOOOOOOOOOOON.

    I love these guys. And I'm digging "Fader" too. It's funny how everyone's Australian, but the lead singer's actually Indonesian. Super awesome :awesome:

    Not my cup of tea, but actually quite a good album, if you're into that..

    After checking out a couple tracks I am really digging these guys! They kind of remind me of an Australian version of Paper Tongues.

    "Conditions" is a fantastic album. I stumbled upon "Fader" a few weeks ago and downloaded their album on a whim and it was a pleasant surprise! When I have the cash, I'm going to pick up a copy.

    It would appear these ruffians were at Bonnaroo '10. I'll have to give them a listen, I suppose.
