I've just seen "Hang me up to dry" (http://youtube.com/watch?v=LrrGKR8Xii4) on Youtube and I think it's quite good. Not that I've heard of them before, but I like the song.
So, what do you think?

May.

I like who they tour with kinda. But the band itself, meh. I hate it when indie rock has a recognizable sound, it's kinda pointless. Be different! Don't sound like a band before you...stop being an indie rock "style" and just be...indie...and rock...but don't sound like what we've known indie rock to sound like.

But yeah, one album, nothing special, maybe they'll get better. Iono. They are from cali though.

Meh. Not too bad, but its' not really my thing, so I'm gonna have to go with Nay. Sorry.

Nay. Pretty unremarkable stuff. I don't know what else they can do, but this feels pretty generic and didn't catch my attention. Is this actually a hit??? (honestly asking)

It's their single...so yes? It's a pretty crappy single...but sometimes singles usually are. I think it's their "hit" too. "Hit" being something radios play, not what's hailed by critics.

Indie Rock. And it can be. Sad ain't it?

It's okay I suppose, but nothing I would hear in my free time, so... nay.

Yeah, that's usually happens when fresh air is needed in a scene. You know, when the rules are laid out and copycats start springing out. It's the natural evolution of any aesthetic movement, you know, from the earliest days of humanity.

It's really not that bad. Maybe it's not too original, but I kind of like it, and isn't that the most important thing?

I wouldn’t buy one of their CDs, but I wouldn’t change the station if they came on the radio. They’re all right but nothing special.
