Paul, here are some tunes to YT to get you a good vibe of them:

Live on the Moon
Helicopter
Air Hockey Champion of the World
Kiss My Troublemaker
Not a Goddamn Thing
I Wanna Kill You Just a Little
Swatted Fly
I Wish My Beer Was as Cold as Your Heart

Hell, you can't go wrong with ANY of their tunes. Just a sick fucking band, and how they aren't HUGE is beyond me.


I will check them out, that song kicked ass. Probably aren't huge because they're more interested in rocking out than playing the games required to get huge would be my guess.

Man, listening to a bunch of Phil X here at work this morning. Good rock and roll is not dead, its just apparently just not allowed to become popular anymore or something.

Damn this is good stuff. :thu:

Makes me think of The Wildhearts. That is high praise.
"If there was only a way that I couldn't even any less than I already can't then I'd gladly not, but I think I've entered some quantum paradox, dark matter levels of can't evening where the total absolute value of not evenness exceeds all ability to explain the can'ting." - MR RUBATO
