Stereophonics formed in 1992 and was originally known as "Tragic Love Company," taking one word from each member's favourite band. The band first consisted of Kelly Jones (vocals/guitar and songwriter), Richard Jones (bass), and Stuart Cable (drums). Cable was fired by the other two members of the band in September 2003, and the band replaced him on the road with the former drummer for The Black Crowes, Steve Gorman. After a decade's worth of studio albums (4 number 1's) the band scored its first number 1 single with Dakota, the first single of their fifth album . The recording of this album demanded the inclusion of a new drummer, Argentinian-Venezuelan Javier Weyler.

Theres no mistake I smell that smell its that time of year again I can taste the air clocks go back railway track
Something blocks the line again and the train runs late for the first time pebble beach were
Underneath a pier just been painted redwhere I hear the news for the first time
And all the friends lay down the flowers sit on the banks and drink for hours talk of the way they saw him last
Local boy in the photograph hell always be twenty three yet the train runs on and on past the place they
Found his clothing
