Actually I wouldn't be surprised at all, that just supports what I was saying.

To be fair, the guy from Owl City cited TPS as a large influence.

If you consider in fluencing completely ripping off a sound, then he has a point...

**** that! All the young people can keep believing that. Anyone who knows anything about music would be able to state otherwise.

Oh my god! Have you heard that Postal Service band or whatever they're called! TOTAL rip off of Owl City! How can they possibly get away with such a blatant copy!

You know, I actually wouldn't mind hearing that simply because I wouldn't want to have anything in common with such a daft person.

I have Give Up. I like 3 songs on it.
Any suggestions for a better album by TPS, I'm all ears.

Flume · 07-25-2010, 02:29 PM

Give Up is the one and only.

See, personally, the thing with TPS is that I love a number of individual songs, but really there are chunks of their stuff I don't like. So I don't really feel any kind of attachment to them. I guess I'm just middle ground.
