Toronto – MAN. What happened to the Music? When they first came out, I thought they were going to rule the world. Tracks like The People, The Getaway, Take the Long Road and Walk it and You Might as Well Try to Fuck Me were just wicked tunes that threaded the fine line of rock and dance. Add in a wicked live show , Robert Harvey’s dancing and his Zeppelinesque sound and you had the makings of a great band. Follow up albums “Welcome to the North” and “Strength in Numbers” were well, disappointing (with the exception of the tune Breakin).
I guess that Harvey had some drug, alcoholic and depression issues, as noted on wikipedia.
Well, Robert Harvey, here’s hoping that you get well and make some more great music.

Horaayy..there are 3 comment(s) for me so far ;)
The last album came out in 2008? You write as if they haven’t released anything in 10 years :)
I absolutely love this album!!
Can remember waiting patiently for them to follow it up and thinking they may never release another one. When they finally did, it just seemed like something was missing. Just didn’t have the same energy or sound??
It’s too bad, they might have been something great :(
josh, i mentioned that album was disappointing. you of all people should know that 1 year in internet music hype time is equal to 10
