No, it's some decent synth plonkings mostly ruined by this guy's
terrible, terrible falsetto singing. I like the instrumental tracks enough,
but homeboy really needs to try a new vocal angle. It grates my nerves like
a food processor after about 5 seconds. I'm totally at a loss how anyone
can be that into his voice. I guess it's relatively 'intelligent,' but
mostly it just sounds like more plodding rock music to me. Still, they're
head and shoulders above most bands that sound like that.
I do like their stickers and t-shirts and general graphic design
angle though. Their slogans and little diagrams are all very cute.
