I know I'll be shot down here, but it reminds me of nasal, american teen, blink182, style singing.
"fearrrr, around herrrrre"
with a real eeee-rrrrrre sound on the r's.

Just puts me off, which is a shame because the music sounds good to me.
Haha, yeah the vocals seem to be the deciding factor for a lot of people. I don't think the way Brain Molko uses his voice is really that similar to bands like Blink 182, but I can see why some people can think that. It's the same with the Smashing Pumpkins, it's the vocals that seems to divide peoples' opinions.
