How the hell are an average band getting so much coverage? I like a lot of stuff that they are doing but I have posted about many other bands that are far more original and progressive. I despair, I really do.

Antony is their singer and he's pretty famous in his own right besides it's a very solid release.

jackhammer · 03-23-2008, 08:03 PM

It's a very average release that happens to have Antony as the frontman.

So? Antony's voice alone makes the album all the better and his unique vocals gives this an album an interesting element that otherwise wouldn't have been there.

A different vocalist all of a sudden makes an Electronic album? Chemical Brothers, Leftfield and Freestylers should have made a fortune already then.

It's the paradox that is musicbanter.

Everybody claims to hate pitchfork yet it's the new albums they hype up the most that get the most discussion here.

Well when your vocalist is one of the most unique and talented vocalists of our age, yes it does.

No it doesnt. An electronic album is not made by vocals.
