Zealot (The War Cry"With a brilliant name like that you don't expect rocket science and after the fun intro their motto of 'Plagiarism is the new creativity' is soon very apparant becasue basically these HAIRY musical instruments kick out quite clever and near spoken school-boy lyrics in an alcholol fuelled haze.
