The band cite their influences as Wizard Of Oz, Gummo, The Beatles and Velvet Underground [1]. Their sound has been described as "a wild and volatile flood of gorgeous, exuberant pop" [2]. The single "Lack Of View" was featured on the soundtrack of the movie American Teen [3] In spring 2008 their US label Iamsound issued a remix EP featuring remixes from CSS, XXXChange from Spank Rock, The Cool Kids, Baron von Luxxury and Mad Decent/Diplo. Their debut album Summer Palace , recorded and produced by the band itself and mixed by Peter Katis (Interpol, Mercury Rev, Spoon, The National) was released in US by Iamsound on July 2008 and in UK by Wonderboat Rec. on February 2009, gaining good reviews from major UK magazines (NME, Uncut, Word, Clash) and web-zines (Drowned In Sound).
