    I have only recently discovered this band(?), not sure if that is what to call them. They are are what you would get if you mixed the beatles, the grateful dead, pink floyd and an orchestra if you put them to work on a non-existing musical play. Very singable, lyrically simple, musically complex, yet brilliant and fun, a bit of a guilty pleasure for me. I look forward to hearing their new stuff.

    They also have a online game with a soundtrack from their new album, really different and fun. Beautiful and enthralling. If you have some time and patience, check it out.

    I just went to a Bowie concert and they were the front band. I thought they were fantastic. They came out at the end of Bowie and performed with them. He said to the audience "these guys are great I wished I'd done some more with them". He made a joke that they were from Texas, is that true? I've been talking about them all week. PC

    They are a great band...if you like them you should also listen to The Flaming Lips.

    I don't know about these guys... they look like another cult waiting to catch a ride on a comet.

    They're great, huh? I went to several of their shows when they were just starting out in Dallas two years ago and it's an amazing experience to see them live. Kinda wish they were still only local, so I could see them more often.

    'soldier girl' is a great song!

    A pal o' mine from Texas introduced me to this band. (He's still Jdubbin..damn.)
