Why they might be annoying:

No two members of the trio are actual twins.
Frontman Tom Bailey sported a fake ponytail after a fan stole his real one by chopping it off and running.
Singer and percussionist Alannah Currie shaved her head at the sides.
Currie and other member Joe Leeway also shaved off their eyebrows.
Joe Leeway left the trio to pursue a solo career.
The remaining 'twins' had a baby out of wedlock.
Allanah smokes.

Why they might not be annoying:

Their signature sound of strong percussion combined with soft synthesizer defined the band's sound.
Their 1985 single 'Hold Me Now' was one of the year's most popular love songs that wasn't 'ballad-y,' yet was still romantic.
