Does anyone like The Duhks...has anyone even heard of them? They're the best band I've discovered so far this year. Probably one of the 5 best artists I've seen live...EVER! You can probably stream some of their newest album (self-titled) from amazon or something...I highly recommend them!

Brutus is an honorable man
It's just coincidence that oil men will wage war in an oil rich land
And this one goes out to my man taking cover in the trenches with a gun in his hand
Then gets home and no one flinches when he can't feed his fam...
But Brutus is an honorable man...

They have a really different sound...difficult to categorize. I guess folk/bluegrass/celtic...? I know, prior to hearing them, that description probably wouldn't have spiked my interest either...but like I said, it's a really eclectic blend of styles.
I've heard several people compare them to a band called The Mammals, if you know them (I think one of the members of the Duhks even mentioned the Mammals at one point in the show). I personally have never heard the Mammals, so I can't confirm that they have a similar sound, but, like I said, I've heard that comparison several times.
You can stream some of The Duhks here ---> http://duhks.com/music.html
Oh, btw, it's pronounced "ducks"
