      still, criminally under-promoted in the US. got a song catalogue loaded with monster hits but as people can't take the humor the boys infuse into their shows, critics and listeners took pleasure in panning them. I suppose they preferred the band to be cutting themselves, gettin into bar brawls, taking themselves too seriously. Nope. That's not the way they do things. No matter. Their fans around the world love them just as they are;
      a top tier guitar band spanning the gamut from pop to no-holds-barred heavy metal.

Much because of Justin and the guys' attitude, and I've realised they have kept the rock alive all these years. Justin Hawkins rides again had a lot to do with it also - so much respect for him and the guys!

    That's where I grew up, I know all those landmarks featured in the song, Kings Tableland, Hanging Rock in Blackheath, Devil's Playground in Jenolan Caves.
    There was a rock band/open mic/blues night or something on every night in that area in the late 80s, early 90s. Alot of musicians from that area.
    This song just nails the feeling I have growing up there and thinking back to that place and the people I knew there at the time.
    Thanks Darkness.
