They were good, not so much anymore...
Here is a review of them live from psyreviews.com

I have sat through support bands at University indie gigs better than this (does anyone else remember Sharkboy? Thought not.) If Infected represent the current state of popular trance, then what I'm into isn't trance. They represent the very very lowest common denominator -- in fact to call them this is an insult to low common denominators.
I would sooner listen to R Kelly's I Believe I Can Fly while having my toenails pulled out by a naked Oprah Winfrey and her slightly fatter sister.
I would sooner have my teeth set fire to by people dressed as Disney characters.
I would sooner contract every type of cancer all at once, while watching Police Academy 7 in three different languages simultaneously.
