Another band that I never listened to, though I've heard their name bandied about. A sort of subdued post-punk pop with vocals low in the mix. Almost hypnotic in its understudied, repetitive drone. The lyrics are a few words here and there, not really worth mentioning. Sounds kind of like R.E.M. without the manic energy of a Michael Stipe.
"A great song mutates, makes quantum leaps, turns up again like the prodigal son. It crosses genres. Could be punk rock, ragtime, folk-rock, or zydeco, and can be played in a lot of different styles, multiple styles... A great song is the sum of all things." - Bob Dylan
