MYPHNH(BS) - Spray

It's back! Music You Probably Have Never Heard (But Should) is back, bringing you the most underrated artists around! This time we have a UK duo known as Spray. Their name may be strange, but their sound is anything but. Let's get into this hot dance group.


I bet you are wondering what the hell is going on in that picture. Well, to be honest, I'm not sure. I do know that it coincides with their biggest single to date, "Everything's Better With Muppets". The song is a catchy romp through the world of electropop, and it came back in 2010 before the market became over saturated with the genre.

What really astounds me is that these two have been going at the music scene for over a decade and have yet to blow up. They have all the right ingredients for an amazing musical act and they've released a string of amazing albums, but still fall shy of five hundred likes on Facebook. Not even I, the one who scours the interent for days upon days to find obscure and interesting music, knew about this group until they were brought to my attention by a friend.

Spray has become rather notorious for their odd song titles. If you thought "Everything's Better With Muppets" was strange, you should check out titles like "Sparks Called And They Want Their Ideas Back", "You Gotta Belieeeeve" and "Squabble At The Rotary Club". See what I mean?

Recently, they have released a new song entitled "You Can Always Come Home", a slower electro-ballad. The track is a very sad song, but in a good way. Instead of dwelling on the bad times, the track is all about letting them go while letting them know they still have a place in your heart. This song is by far one of the most realistic songs I've heard in a while, giving the listener an honest reaction to a very real situation.

The bottom line is that Spray has been a hard working group for years, and it's about time they got featured on your favorite blog, Taking Over The Universe. Can I get an Amen?
