Australians from the early to mid-'80s. They had sort of a mid-'70s
UK pub-rock feel to their music: if you remember Any Trouble, or Nick
Lowe's work with Brinsley Schwartz, those are pretty good touchstones.
My favorite of their songs were "The Nips Are Getting Bigger," but I
think they were probably best known for "If You Leave Me, Can I Come
Too?" Their later albums suffered very badly from the dreaded Bad
Eighties Production Syndrome.
