To pigeon hole any new music seems to be the the job of numerous music journalists and so far a few have already branded Freight. They have been called everything from "delightful acoustica" to "tones not dissimilar to early Radiohead" and very recently a direct comparison to the Kinks was given from someone at the BBC! You can make up your own mind by listening to the samples on their website. Adam and Norval are in the process of recording as much of their material as they can.
