When a record label wants to release an album that doesn't fit with its image, it simply starts a new imprint and pretends the two aren't connected. This UK duo has pulled the same move. Normally the punkers behind Leila Khaled, the two here indulge their love of almost Pretenders-like, hook-heavy power pop.
What to do with an album's worth of material that doesn't sit with your hard-edged punk credentials? Pretend you're someone else and release it under a pseudonym - which is exactly what British agit-rockers Trev White & Dave Gregory did with a back-catalogue of material ranging from three-minute pop to country strum-alongs that were just too - well - NICE for their new band, Leila Khaled.
