The Postal Service (lyrics, cd, bands)

meh, death cab and postal service sound pretty different though, aside from the singer, they really don't have all that much in common.

I used to just dislike the Postal Service and the awful pop crap that they managed to convince half a million people was "good" Electronic music.

Then I heard their remix of Feist's "Mushaboom," and now I hate them

I'd say they convinced half a million people they made "good" Pop music with Electronic influences.

Trust me - when I think of proper electronic music postal service is no where near the list of bands (pan sonic etc, four tet, etc...).

I still very much like PS tho

Does any one else really like this band?

i love them, my fav song by then is "nothing better" and "such great heaight"

which is a cover from iron and wine of the same title, all 3 are really good songs!

Yes great band. Such Great Heights is a good song too.

JimV · 03-28-2006, 01:23 PM

I'm getting into them more and more now!

Iron & Wine did the cover, not PS

Love this group - make sure to look into Figurine as very similar, but more rewarding in the long run I find.

A new band that's really good/similar is Electric President too
