I think they were in the charts, they were really good, they were quite young, they came, they were great, they went away, anyone remember them?

    I was never a fan, but are you thinking of The Ordinary Boys?

    No , they were leagues above those guys, Im pretty sure they were in the charts, very Ska orientated butreally fresh, could have been late 2000's or after. Very distinguished sound.

    No, thats not them, from memory the lead singer played guitar, I think accoustic although could have been the set, alternative ska but quite popie, really really good, only around for around a year, I think british, one of those bands where you think 'this is really good' then they are gone. They were really young too.

    Nope, more of a pop radio friendly ske/reggae sound.

    Imperial Leisure
    The Rumble Strips
    Sonic Boom Six

    … and other search engine suggestions.

    Clues such as number of band members and instrumentation would help to narrow down the possible options.

    I think the cumbersome name didn't help their career.
