Wow, Pandora's first "match" couldn't have been weirder..."The Boy with Two Hearts", by "The Boy Least Likely to". If there was any resemblance there, I couldn't hear it.
A couple more not so good matches, and one by the Kills. Then we get one I've heard once or twice before, "The Ting Tings"...and there's actually a similarity, although The Kills are far more interesting, IMO.
I think Pandora's just getting weird lately...their matches seem to be far sloppier than they used to be. OTOH, that may not be all bad, I'm hearing a lot more new stuff than I had been.

i wa sjust on last fm and they said it sounded like the yeah yeah yeahs and the band you heard the other day, BRMC.
In reply to this comment by Stormsinger:
I can feel another Pandora station coming on...I'm really curious to see what other stuff Pandora thinks sounds like this. I'm leaning strongly towards D&B, even though that's not a bass he plays...he still plays it like one (mostly). Although the "sort-of-beatboxing" they do in some spots doesn't really fit anything I've ever heard.
None of that matters though, the only important thing is, I like it.
Again, thanks!

It has been described as post punk yuppie indie rock with a base of dance and electronica. So.. you're right!
In reply to this comment by Stormsinger:
What the hell kind of genre does this fall into?
I can hear similarities to d&b, although it isn't. And it vaguely reminds me of LCD Soundsystem, although I couldn't pinpoint why. Same with several electronic sub-genres...although it doesn't appear to exactly fit any of them either. Does it get it's own genre?
Why oh why are you doing this to me? My budget can't handle this influx of new talent!

How do you buy music? (Music Talk Post)
>> ^MINK:
it's true there are niches where vinyl still works, but it's dying a slow death i tell ya. people tell me proudly they sell "more than 1000 copies of vinyl" and it's like yeah, but what happened to 100,000?
100,000 copies is/was/will always be a dream.
In fact, ask any distributor or pressing plant and they'll tell you the same thing; vinyl sales have gone way up in the last five years. Mostly due to the retro-interests of the indie rock and lo-fi scenes. USB turntables in every college kids flats nowadays.
Most shows I go to lately, they're selling 7"s and 12"s along with t-shirts.

Ah, good to know you know about it - might be the view you're in which affects. Or maybe channel artery cloggage is to blame.
Speaking of which I'm going to 7-it-up, an elegant way of resolving agree-to-disagree scenarios in a fashion that offers finality.

Thanks for being cool about it
That 'one-click' access isn't available on all posts. I've had to use * nochannel on a few vids.
In reply to this comment by Krupo:
I see.
I consider them indie rock.
Especially considering the way the instruments are used - they play them!
Supporting my assertion is the fact the Edge, Toronto's alt rock station, has given them airtime too.
btw, channel management tip - you have 'one-click' access to remove a vid from rocknroll, so you don't have to use the *-nochannel invocation

FWIW, I'm also friends with someone who works at the label that released their album in Canada.
The final arbiter of facts, Wikipedia (heh), supports the confusion though, classifying them both as Indie Rock and Indie Pop.
