Talk 'bout the inevitable, it was Arno Carstens, then Civil Twilight, then Die Antwoord, now this guys?! SMH...shout out to Seether, they're no sell outs like Kahn and the gang!

I hope its not for good but just to crack the market, win a Grammys and then come home for a braai. My advise is to them is to avoid wearing red and blue bandanas !

They deserve it. Well done! They'll always come back to play and their concerts will become better as they'll be rarer out here. It's about time we had a band who could do this. Springbok Nude Girls could've become bigger, but Arno Carstens was distracted. SA deserve this. Even Seether...they're ok but not really a great band. Hope Parlotones get MASSIVE!

Wikipedia is fast yo:

The Parlotones are a rock band based in Los Angeles, California and originally hailing from Johannesburg, South Africa

Good luck, I do hope they come regularly to SA. Hope they have what it takes - so many have fallen trying to live "the american dream"
