not:D

I think they suck
It's exactly like MGMT, they have what, one decent song on the album and the rest is all super flat, super boring, super forgettable.

I just listened to White Winter Hymnal. Shite, but that's a fucking great drum sound. Which reminds me, I really need to stop kicking about with producers.

I don't much like them either, I tried. It's a crime that someone like Ben Chasny doesn't get the kind of exposure they're getting.

FOR REAL!!

Yep.

Truly talented, unique musicians ... well, this goes with any kind of art really ... but no one gives a fuck about that, they just want safe and easy bullshit to chew on. But I think this shit tastes awful. Fuck Fox McCloud.

I don't get how anyone can compare FF with Six Organs, but anyway yes of course, he's so much more singular.

I don't think he's comparing, he's saying "Why isn't [musician A] popular when they're so much more unique, consistent, talented, hell maybe even CATCHY compared to [musician F]?"

exactly

There's a worrying sense of Christian campfire singalongs about them.

Unrelated to anything on this thread: is 'faff' the same as 'fraff'? there used to be a band about at the time of britpop called Fraff, that's why i'm asking. I'm not sure, I read a somewhere it's south london slang for 'messing around'.

I enjoy them, just super mellow enjoyable singer songwriter whatever. Nothing great but not bad..

They have beards, like Iron & Wine and Will Oldham (two more severely mediocre artists).

Too right Iron & Wine sucks. Will Oldham solo often bores me too.

I have a soft spot for Iron&Wine. Maybe because I bought one of his records back in the days when I had no many to waste.

Yes

Faff does sort of mean 'messing around', but not in an irresponsible way, more a sort of doing something in an overfussy but ultimately not very productive way. I've never heard of the word 'Fraff' though. It sounds vaguely like a type of coffee.

I see we're finding new ironic ways to hate.

I think everything except Our Endless Numbered Days sucks. That record is great though.
