Because I just heard of them, and I think they're great, you have to hear about them too.

I think that they're fun and have a good beat.

I liked the first songs music video. And the story was sorta nice too.

As for the song itself, I think it had a nice laidback beat to it. It was good.

The second song is pretty similar in terms of laidback. Also good. Like the lyrics on both songs, they're simple for a change.

"KICK OFF YOUR SHOES AND PUT ON YOUR SUN GLASSES"!

I can't get this tune out of my head!

No More Kings - Sweep The Leg (http://youtube.com/watch?v=uFlQNtL8F9s)

This has a bit of a story to it, a la The Karate Kid:

When Daniel LaRusso (Ralph Macchio) starts at a new school and shows an interest in Ali (Elisabeth Shue), he finds himself a target of Ali's ex-boyfriend, Johnny Lawrence (William Zabka), and the rest of the sadistic students from the Cobra Kai karate dojo, who live by the motto, "Strike first. Strike hard. No mercy."

In an attempt to stop the bullying, Daniel's new neighbor Mr. Miyagi (Pat Morita) tells the Cobra Kai sensei and students that Daniel, who knows only a few karate moves that he learned at the Y, will compete against the Cobra Kai kids in the All Valley Karate Tournament. Mr. Miyagi then trains Daniel in traditional methods of karate, where discipline, fearlessness, and virtue are as important as kicks and punches.

At the tournament, Daniel advances to the semifinals, where he faces a Cobra Kai student who has been instructed by his corrupt sensei to use an illegal move to take Daniel out of the competition with a knee injury. Daniel refuses to quit, and he faces his rival, Johnny, in the final round.

Johnny's sensei tells him to target Daniel's injury and "sweep the leg." Daniel uses Mr. Miyagi's training to fight through the pain, as he employs the awesome "crane kick" move to take Johnny out with a foot to the face, winning the competition.
