A mix of frisky, pleasant synthpop and new wave. By the way, the guys are from Australia. I didn't think before that there were a lot of good bands there that we hadn't heard anything about. Time has passed, something has arrived, something has accidentally stumbled upon. Somehow, enjoy it :) with a time machine. It's not a masterpiece, but it conveys the spirit of that time without mistakes...
