In the whole Irish rock scene in the US, IWF are totally on a planet of one. I think someone; somewhere likened them to They Might Be Giants meets Hothouse Flowers – sort of lad back, somewhat funky alt-rock with a touch of Irish. “The Great American Something” builds on the bands previous 2 full lengths and I would say easily their strongest release. Check out “Talk to Me”, it’s a rock radio hit if ever I heard one – that’s if radio ever had the balls to play it.
