Well they are a band that hasn't been around that long, and received hype right from the very beginning. Unless you just heard about them from a friend or something, you probably heard about them from sort sort of hype machine, no?

Children's songs sung with an off-key voice over dissonant music.

I heard it from a friend, who possibly heard it from a hype machine.  But my only source of hype is this board.

Holy cow, that sounds awful.  Not Bags' bag, likely.

You should be ashamed of yourself.

I couldn't help it...Doom put it in my head -- blame him!!

[Herr Professor Doktor Doom]

[kurosawa-b/w]

Hey, Doom. I will be in NYC that night seeing The Blueskins for the very first time (yippee!). But Happy Birthday in advance!

[Herr Professor Doktor Doom]

thanks Kurosawa and enjoy

I would rather sit around and have my toenails plucked out than have to put up with that most irritating new schlock of hype aka the Fiery Furnaces. Completely agree with GGW's assessment.
 
 Don't worry Rhett, I won't be buying a ticket from under your friend's nose for the DBT. Not my cup of tea. But I'd take them over Fiery Furnaces any freaking day of the week! Warning, I've been reading about lots of different kinds of people getting into them lately. Luckily for you, most are far away from here.
 
 Oye, I'm not Jewish either. Mazel tov!
