The Phoenix Foundation

[Italian Plastic]

These guys are probably the best NZ band.

THE CHECKS are the best NZ band

What about Flight of the Conchords :D

[Italian Plastic]

The Checks are very good yes...and so are Flight Of The Conchords...but The Phoenix Foundation ftw

I am going to bump this thread and say.

OH MY GOD THEIR NEW ALBUM IS GOING TO BE GREAT.

 

They just released their new song for free, and it's amazing. It's a lot like the Fleet Foxes if you like them. Please listen!

Great stuff really. I think "Buffalo" is my favourite so far. And the video is amazing as well ! I have to check more of this band on youtube !

:wacky:

 

I'm seeing them in may

[Italian Plastic]

BUMP

 

The Phoenix Foundation played on Later With Jools Holland the other day with Coldplay and some others. This is incredible cos they really aren't famous in the UK or anywhere other than here. I mean, I can only think of 2 other New Zealanders who have been on Later!

 

The song is amazing and they look extremely happy. WATCH IT
