I'll check it out after work.
My friend only told me to check out two songs claiming they were their best songs and he said he thought i'd love them (we've known eachother like 15 years now so he knows me pretty well). I checked them out and one was ok... but then it got repetitive... and annoying.
I should've known better though, he likes a few of the same bands i like but he also ends up liking alot of mainstream cookie cutter crap as well as Abba and the A*teens. I've never even heard of the A*Teens before him...
Stogi:
Ya some of their stuff can be a bit repetitive, but it's in the same vein as something like Daft Punk (which is insanely repetitive). It just sounds so good you don't care if it simply repeats.
EasyCure:
eh... by that third or fourth cougar sound i had to shut it off. I guess i'll just never be into them. While Daft Punk is insanely repetitive, their music doesn't sound like some college kid making music with a synthesizer and a soundboard.
Stogi:
I can see that.
I'm curious,, what music do you genre do you listen to the most?

That's somewhat unfair to answer because my taste is varies from time to time. Lately I've been listening to more hip-hop/dance/electro music, for instance. Since Sunday though, I've been listening to a lot more pop-punk/punk bands for reasons that would be familiar to fans of a particular band that shall rename nameless at the moment :)
To say i prefer X genre might skew ones opinion and easily dismiss my lack of interest for Ratatat as "oh well he just doesn't like Y music." That's not the case though, I just haven't found the song that opens the floodgates. By that I mean that there is usually a song or two by any given artist/band that just clicks with me and makes everything else they do accessable. It doesn't always happen though, which might be the case here.
For the record though, if you browsed my ipod/itunes by genre you'd have a higher percentage of artists labeled under some sort of "Rock" category.
