Freaking brilliant band. I highly suggest you check them out, they're incredibly original. Such a mellow, laid back sound; amazing guitar work.

Hmmm, I listened to Monkey Knife Fight and Wanna Throw Up, and it's pretty good. Good chill music, but I think it would be so much better without the keyboard. I think the keyboard kills the cool tone of the music, especially in Monkey Knife Fight. Nonetheless, it's a keeper.

If you like this stuff, you should definitely check out Jets to Brazil.

Sorry, I downloaded MKF last week and forgot about it until now.

Okay, the keyboard opening rules. It reminds me of New Order, except not as good. However, this isn't meant to be a New Order type song, so that's not a slam on the band. The drum kicks in with a nice beat, and the guitar line is good.
Overall, I'd say that it's not bad. I need to listen to it later when I'm in a different mood to really judge it.
