Has anyone heard them before? Not going to lie I have them playing today and they are really good in their strange unique way.

I've been hearing some good things about them so I might have to give them a listen. Any comparisons you'd like to make?

I thought this was going to be about Clinton Portis of the Washington Redskins. I'm dissapointed.

They're like a hip hop version of the cranberries...I say hip hop very loosely it's NOTHING like you would hear on the radio from a rap artist although there is good beats with drums and a record scratching some

thats pretty good...i wouldn't say hip hop (at least they weren't back in the 90's)...it was more like electronica cranberries..

Yeah but that record scratching is what really makes them hip hop more than other genres...their "official" genre is Trip-Hop according to Wiki

Wow, nobody touched the first part of this? Have to say I'm surprised.

I'm not. I didn't think anybody else would know that Mallet was into dudes and couldn't possibly have had a girlfriend.
