Yeah, I know Delta...I included a track from one of their albums on my last
SOTT. The only problem I have with them is the singers voices could do to be
a bit less grating sometimes, other than that on the whole they're pretty
good although they completely underachieve. The main two guys were in a
previous band called the Sea Urchins.
The string arrangements are done by the son of the guy who did the strings
for ELO (name escapes me just now...Louis Clark???)
The Great Eastern is great too though I haven't picked up Hate yet. Both
produced by Dave Fridmann(sp?)
