On the band's sound, guitarist and vocalist Liam Downey tells Upset: "One of my friends says we're louder than Nirvana. And we are subjected to grunge by default but it's not that bad. Mudhoney is cool but Tad is rad.

"I see us as another spinoff of new wave music. I love Devo. I don't think any of us are into one style, we all have our conventions, we're all really snobby artists but at the same time we're normal people who listen to Backstreet Boys because it's what we heard growing up.
