I am really digging their album "Evil Friends". I'd hate to say it but I am liking it more than Lightning Bolt. It sounds like Radiohead ,Jack White & Justin Timberlake decided to make a record together. Anyone ever seen these guys live? TOP Tracks: Evil Friends, Creep in a T-Shirt, Hip Hop Kids, Purple Yellow Red & Blue

    Been listening to them for a few years, saw them live last year. Definitely check them out. They're a blast.
    Beavis: All my friends are brown and red? What does that mean?
    Butthead: It means that his friends are like turds and that they like suck.
    Beavis: Heh heh. Oh yeah. Yeah! Get those spoons out of my face before I shove them up your butt!
    Butthead: Huh huh.

    This is the only thing I know of them.

    They're a really cool band with a super unique sound. Fun live, too, saw them in 2010 or 2011, can't remember!

    My favorite albums are- Waiter: “You Vultures!”, In the Mountain in the Clouds, and the Satanic Satanist.

    Their sound has evolved. Earlier albums are more psychedelic sounding. Best all around album is probably In the Mountain in the Clouds, but all 3 of the above are great.

    +1 for In The Mountain In The Cloud. I also like their Evil Friends, and The Majestic Majesty is an acoustic version of Satanic Satanist, so it's a nice compliment to that album.
