hype? six months before the strokes and the white stripes, the hype was with at the drive-in that they were going to change the world like nirvana did. franz fuckdinand will be remembered as nothing much but one hit wonders and the arcade fire came around a time when neo folk symphonic pop were going through a popularization. the happened to be the "ones" so to speak.

They've changed nothing for me, I discovered music really with Sonic Youth (before that I was just a casual Linkin Park fan). Ask anyone in the street if they know At The Drive-In. Nobody will - at least in France. Now if you ask any of the other bands, 99% of the people will know them. Franz Ferdinand sold 3 fucking millions copies of their albums.
