nice, very easy to listen to, subdued crooner, elegant rock and roll - creative and visceral lyrics

Undeservingly underrated. Stupefyingly brilliant use of the correct mix of melody, dissonance, feedback, noise, and rhythm. Plenty of freely downloadable material here. I love it all, but three succeed stands out as a favorite.

A Place to Bury Strangers

gustov — Sun, 02 Sep 2007 00:28:44 -0500

A little 80esque Joy Division mixed w/ some Ministry smothered in static and you're about there. Best enjoyed at 125 dB.

Dirty Projectors

trimmer — Fri, 07 Sep 2007 16:13:36 -0500

distinctive, crooning voice and equally unique approach to arrangements

Purple Crush

Faunky - bounce that backbone - yeah - what happens on the dance floor, stays on the dance floor
