Their major-label debut, "With Love and Squalor", was released in early 2006. Love And Squalor did particularly well in the UK on the strength of dancefloor standbys Nobody Move, Nobody Get Hurt; It’s A Hit; and The Great Escape. In 2008, the group put out the awesome second full-length, also on Virgin, entitled Brain Thrust Mastery. They unleashed a new epic masterpiece named "Barbara" in June and are in town to promote it.
