no, I meant that it has boomy techno-ish sounds and synths, I didn't mean it was techno

Whats with that annoying harmonising effect on all of the guys vocals, its so damn annoying (Pro Tools should definately not make an autotune feature)

These guys are great!! Got both the cd's and had the pleasure of seeing them at Firefest3 in october. Superb live band.
Trond Holter the guitarists can shred with the best of em. Check out "The Drop" and "Erection" from Hard To Be A Rock And Roller and the "Riddle" from Wigwamania.

They are touring with Gotthard feb/mar 2007. can't wait.

They have clearly modelled hemselves on the darkness - they even have a bass player with a silly 'tache looks like Frankie Poulain

Good tune - Like it - clip of them at firefest is good

Correct, but that is where the comparison with the Darkness ends.
After seeing both live and heard em on cd. Wig Wam win hands down (IMO).

It was bad enough in the 80s!

not keen on this clips, it's like Bon Jovi except even worse. The key change is cringe worthy, it reminds me of 80s malmsteen stuff.

It's poor, booo
