UrbanSprawl

I'll check them out seeing as you know Irish music well this is a recent band of the last few years try this ..
Now it not Divine Comedy it's more to do with Neil Hannon.

Sugar?

rubadub

No. The name has nothing directly to do with sweetness. It's a single word. Well known band.

Notice the box does not say sugar cubes.

I was gonna say Placebo before but I didn't think those were technically placebos.

yep placebo. If I put up a pic of a tub of sugar pills used as plaebos it would have been got right away.

Sheridan81

Good band Placebo. I have a few of their cds for sale for cheap if anyone wants them, just PM or check my signature.


This is not two different clues for two different words, just two pics for one clue.
