* NotChristianRock: Tim Smith has stated that the album ''Sing To God'' is in no way a religious work, despite the word Jesus being clearly audible in amongst the lyrics of the song 'Fiery Gun Hand' -- which makes a lot more sense when you realize the song is about [[CrossesTheLineTwice Jesus shooting himself instead of a crucifixion.]]

You want a band that complains about [[{{Suburbia}} Suburban Life]]? Come to Cardiacs. You want a band that combines ProgressiveRock and PostPunk? Come to Cardiacs. You want a band that preempted the Emo genre by about 10 years? Come to Cardiacs.
Cardiacs are that perfect band you've been looking for all your life but couldn't find because they're so damn obscure. Frontman Tim Smith is pretty much the only songwriter of the band. However, older brother Jim Smith is as much of a key character as Tim, bassist, batter-head, bully-bait, he's been "there" since Tim was a baby. Then there's Sarah, Tim's wife, saxophonist, pre-Seaside synth player, skirt wearer supreme, she's been "there" too.
