“We don't have our version of Eddie from Iron Maiden if that's what you mean?! We have a tiger's head that usually comes out of the cupboard on long drunken nights; I guess that's the closest thing we have to a mascot.”Hotly tipped as one of the bands to watch out for in the coming year, Raygun......
