They've got a solid groove and most of the songs having a very danceable quality, but they're still not upbeat.
They're kind of 'towards the end of the party' songs - people are drunk and slumpingly dancing over one another's shoulders...

It's a kind of pop-rock-funk with a Tom Waits-esque 'barstool blues' lyrical sentiment.

This is like Cerrone meets Led Zeppelin's "Kashmir".
Awesome is what I am saying basically.
