has anyone heared of this craaaazy band? they sound similair to the acade fire in some of their songs and i find them exceptionally pleasing on the ear although 'support our troops' is theeee most mental 'song' ever!!

if u havnt heared of them i suggest u check out:

I luv the valley OH
Cran heart
Brian the vampire

and anything else u find

Oh yeah. I JUST saw them two weekends ago, and it was a fun show, even if I wasn't all that familiar with their setlist. I wouldn't compare them to AF; Xiu Xiu is ALOT more experimental.

I don't see the Arcade Fire comparison, but I love them. "I Love the Valley OH" is one of my favorite songs of all time. Strangely enough, I own every full album and EP except Fabulous Muscles (which that song is off), I only own bits and pieces of that one.

I saw them a couple weekends ago too, and I'd really recommend it. It's a pretty intense emotional experience.
