i've seen them open for other bands twice. not the most notable performance, but there's certainly worse out there. They were kinda funny live with the banter and whatnot, certainly more appealing than the stuff i've heard on the radio but overall IMO they lie somewhere between chick-rock and wuss-rock.

I've heard two of their songs and think they're decent. Not amazing or anything but sort of fun. I'd like to hear more.

I started a thread about them in like November of last year and got LOADS of shit from LooGar and Bloor. But I stand by it. I like catchy shit most of the time and IMO it's catchy and fun. Something about those chick's voices sucks me in.

I like the album and look forward to seeing them live in July.

walking with the ghost is THE most annoying song ever... grrrrrrreat, now it's stuck in my head. i want to shoot my ears when i was walking past them at coachella. i don't get all the hype about them- just cuz they're hot and supposedly lesbian?

catchy girly-pop. i loved "if i was you" but only mildly-liked their last one. they don't add anything to the musical landscape, but they're damn fun!

Okay. Found and listened to their song Walking With The Ghost.


I like it. It's short and sweet and it grows on you the more times you listen to it. It's more pop than indie ( I originally thought they were a folk band) but that's not a bad thing.

Thanks to all that responded.

Jeezoos. Why won't interest in these teenyboppers die? This is a slippery slope to the dark side, people.

Might not be the same bus stop, but it's the same street.
