This band belongs to the English tradition of elaborate silliness that once had a home in prog rock (to undercut perceived pretensions, I suppose). Bands used to sing about giant hogweeds and flying teapots and such...

Tim Smith has now been awarded an honorary doctorate in Composition from the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland. A truly original modern composer.
