Sweep the Leg Johnny
 
I'm told that the awkward and unpronounce-able name is a reference to the movie The Karate Kid. That aside, the band's incessant touring has helped them evolve itno a loud and tight rock band. They incorporate their ever-so-trendy dynamic shifts and sudden changes into their songs coherently. Their use of saxophone also fits nicely into their song structures. Their growth as a band is reflected in the gradual evoltuion from their 7" releases to their new, self-titled full-length on Chicago's Divot Records. They released a second album, Tomorrow We Will Run Faster, on Southern and toured Europe.
