To me it just sounds like indie rock except they replaced the guitar with a piano. To pick a random song, "Girl Anachronism" to me sounds like a pretty normal indie rock/punk song except the piano, which I guess is "cabaret" but I don't really see anything too special about it.

I can't say I know of any other bands that are playing the exact same kind of music, but to me true originality is more than just playing a common genre with a bit of a twist, it's more about melding together various musical influences to craft something new and brilliant.

But, that's just my opinion. No need to bite my head off.
