Sunset Rubdown

Anyone heard of them?
I got their song You Go On Ahead (Trumpet Trumpet II), specifically its opening minute and a half or so, stuck in my head after hearing it on 3RRR this evening.

Saw 'em live at a festival a few years ago. Wasn't my thing.

I tried really hard to get into them, but the songs never jumped out at me. Usually I like Bowie-esque stuff so I might come around to them in the future.

Yeah the rest of the album I'm listening to now is...eh?
'twee' is the word I'm reaching for and bits & pieces of indie and those jangly-guitar-based bands that all sound like over-produced Joy Division and prog* and just trying too hard

(*I listen to King Crimson so I ain't knocking prog)
