I guess I could just as easily post this in the Albums You're Digging thread, but I'm bored of being a General Music recluse

For now anyway.

Just thought I'd share another pretty awesome discovery I made when I was filling out my RYM catalogue a bit earlier today, in this case some ice-cool cowpunk I must have got hold of a couple of years ago, and only just remembered that I actually had in the first place. Basically, if you think you'd dig some fun, punky music that doesn't take itself too seriously and was written by a bunch of Australians in the mid 80s who clearly watched too many Hollywood westerns (bless 'em), I'm pretty sure you'll dig this lot.

Here, have a video;

Anyone else had a brush with these happy chappies before? Up for a link from yours truly? Not really bothered? etc

So...I'm not sensing a lot of love for these guys

Check out a few of their vids on youtube though, they're good fun. I'm here if you wanna know more about them.
