Consumer Guide Reviews:

Codex Teenage Premonition [Domino, 2005]
On live tapes and outtakes, oddly uncatchy old Scots-pop band proves winningly spastic young white-funk band ("Hungry Beat," "Discord"). *

Hungry Beat [Acute, 2007]
O.P.G.--Original Postpunk Glaswegians indulge unnatural sense of rhythm ("Meat Whiplash," "Discord"). ***
