What's the deal with this band "Be Your Own Pet"

Not to just continue the list of bands with chick singers, but my impression was just Letters to Cleo with more crunch and better instincts. In other words, sorta great.

Also IMO "October, 1st Account" is the standout, the tracks do get samey.

Totally obsessed with "Damn Damn Leash" again today after many years away from it.

Also, I recognize almost nobody at all from the first act of this thread.

Band reunion. I kinda forgot about them too be honest.

“Adventure” is a jam and I still hum it to myself occasionally. Great to read they’re all in good places and happy playing together again! But the story headline is wrong, no? ‘Band returns after surviving sleazy indie’ and then references the Burger Records mess as an example of the shit Pearl had to put up with in general, but BYOP were never signed to Burger. Right? If I were XL, my solicitor would be having a word with the Grauniad about now.
