There aren't many bands like Hurts. The duo are a cross between rock, pop, electronic and dance music, whilst keeping the BPM high and mixing it all together in a techno style. Confused? Me too.
The album 'Happiness', released last year, was stunning. By a living mile one of the best I heard in 2010. It's not very often you hear an album, and know that every track on it could very well be a single.
They, so far, haven't had the major recognition they truly deserve as a band. They're not regularly at the top of the UK Chart, or always on the radio. But those in the know adore them. As do I - Hurts are going to be big this year.
They were huge last year, but I have a sneaky feeling they'll be even bigger this year. Let's wait and see.
In the meantime, you can follow Theo, one half of the band, on Twitter, or visit the band's official website.
Or, just enjoy 'Sunday', the new single, which is below.
