Quirky drums, bass and guitar driving the tale of a 'den of iniquity' where dodgy things may or may not occur (in the minds of the other local home-owners).

Artist picture
Neo-garage, punk-modernist, jazz-wave, thrash-meandering.
This band was started to provide an antidote/alternative to the formulaic, radio-friendly dross being churned out as 'opium for the masses' and also to pay homage to the bands we really admire for their willingness to ignore conventional boundaries, their humour and their creative stylings.

Story behind the song
Based on a now-defunct song, originally written by Dave 'D-Dog' Arthur, that Edwin provided the bass part for originally. Edwin liked the basic song structure so he rewrote it with the chorus in a different key and a new set of lyrics. The lyrics represent Edwin's humorous idea of what our neighbours may think of us. This was originally slated to be sung by Jean-Paul and there were a couple of takes with him singing, but it didn't suit his style. Edwin sang it in the end so this is essentially an Edwin Fraud solo performance.
