Anybody likes them ?
They sound pretty grunge which is unusual these days. The singer's voice reminds me of Dave Pirner from Soul Asylum.

I'm discovering the Devil and God Are Raging Inside Me album and I must say I really like the first 4 tracks. That's a hell of a rageous rock !!
The 5th track is a bit too long and slow so I think it breaks the rythm of the album, but I need to dig the rest of this CD a little more.

I dig some of their tunes, but there is a lot of screaming too which can get a bit old.

I listened to their most popular song The Quiet Things That No One Ever Knows. Sounds too emo for my taste. I really like Soul Asylum and don't hear Dave at all in this. Anyone like this band but OP? I don't wanna be a downer.

I guess the guitarist has good hooks and that little breakdown on sowing season where he was all like "I'm not your friend, I'm not your lover" was pretty cool. It is just wayy heavier than it should have been. Acoustic please?

I was thinking about the second song I posted, where the voice really reminds me of Dave Pirner :

There are plenty of live acoustic versions of their songs on YouTube !!

I really like them! Love the last two albums, but Daisy, the recent one, is really an intense experience from start to finish. Simple, short songs, not as epic as The Devil though. But great production. While listening pictures of a Forest-Slasher-Movie with Hillbilies come to mind. If I ever do such a movie "Gasoline" will be playing in the End Credits!
