BattleHamster Posts: 48	Permalink 28.03.2009 - 19:23 BattleHamster Posts: 48 WorpeX, they played "Keelhauled" when I saw them about a week ago, so I wouldn't be at all surprised if they did. What? No songs with the word "wench" or some kind of alcohol/tavern in the title? I'm shocked. They would be such a guilty pleasure band, except I can't bring myself to feel guilty about liking them. They're too much fun. Loading...

As for the song; and I thought their debut totally sucks. Their vocalist sounds even worse on this song and the accordion is just fucking annoying The violin is nice, have to give them that, but it really can't save this piece of crap They're amusing to watch live (as the lowest opening band that is) but I really can't understand anyone who's ready to pay money for this album (or their previous one, or a concert they're headlining) ---- BAS - Beautifully Accented Sexiness Loading...
