More like Wire IMO

Not bad, musically pretty good, lyrically a bit simplistic.

Good effort and you can see what they're trying to do but I couldn't help but cringe whilst I was listening to it.

They're clearly a really talented bunch, but the singer sounds a bit too Northern (even for me!) and a bit flat/monotone.

Don't hear a lot of similarity to 'Burnels bass' other than that it is high in the mix! Got the title of their debut LP right though!

On the subject of simplistic lyrics... it's simply a cover version! So not down to them...

Hi Guys

I'm Andy from Flies on you and it's great to hear your comments, I would appreciate it if you heard the LP though before making your mind up.
Flies on you are huge Stranglers fans but wire comes up time and time again in the reviews we've been getting (which is no bad thing)
anyway you can hear our LP here

and we have a couple of other vids here
and these are pretty much more a jj sound

anyway thanks for the comments and would love to know what you think of the other tracks.
We know not everyone is going to like us but we would like people to hear more than an altered images cover version before making there mind up.

Cheers
Andy ( Flies on you )

This is not a bad cover version of the original song by Altered Images. I remember hearing this on John Peel way back!!
