...Um yeah...so that's the huge news, and after listening to a few of their songs I really really don't get it. The lead singer's voice sounds like he is always congested, the lyrics are pretentious, and purposely "poetic" in that annoying "I'm a musician therefore I need to be taken seriously" sort of way, and really guys maracas? I am just waiting for them to start holding hands and letting their long hippie hair sway in the breeze while singing kumbaya. With lyrics like "I take the key in my hand and it takes the pain away hey hey" sung to much applause and acclaim I'm starting to feel as if I should just praise them so I don't get noses turned up at my blog by indie music snobs. I guess I'm not refined enough to appreciate their hippie folksy annoying whiny brand of indie rock. I also haven't smoked enough dope.
ENJOY!

The lead singer sounds like Elvis Costello... being choked. Not a good sound.
