What does this sound like? ...And out comes the wolves meets Double nickels on the dime?

It's a little more like The Specials meets Black Flag. Here's their most popular song, to give you a good idea of their general sound: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-9zIFfE8IkU

Well, all my digital albums miss out at the moment. Sticking to the physical stuff I own. But out of the physical music:

Depeche Mode - Black Celebration
Echo & The Bunnymen - Heaven Up Here
Birds Of Tokyo - Universes
Starsailor - On The Outside
Radiohead - The Bends

Main one missing that I only have digitally is Joy Division - Unknown Pleasures.
