History

After the release of their well received first EP Reset Speed in 2002, the band began the first of two nationwide tours around New Zealand. They played over 60 gigs (many of which sold out) and included gigs with The Datsuns, The D4, Superjesus, Grinspoon and Betchadupa. Two of their music videos reached M2's top 12 charts (with both of them staying on for over 2 months).[1]
