ya, i have to agree with alejo, she's not terrible, but she definitely doesn't stand out as a particualrily talented drummer. Jack's a decent guitarist, but not great either. I liked them a few years ago, but after a while I started noticing that there's just something lacking, to be honest, I just think that they're two mediocre musicians who formed a band hoping to gain some recognition from the fact that a two person band is relatively original. They are pretty succesfull, and I give them credit for that, they've certainly played their cards right, but personally I don't find them especially talented at all.
