Yeah, I find I'm becoming more and more a fan of synthpop. I'm not totally into that cold, sterile stuff MicShaz mentioned - is it coldwave? Darkwave? Some bloody thing anyway, kind of like what Gary Numan does, but most of the rest of it is fine. Catchy stuff, and those guys can really play the keys. This would suck pretty low on the scale for me, too.
