So where do you think they belong then?

What I've heard sounds like the usual alternative stuff to me,

Post rock and math rock bands are pretty prog influenced too but I think they belong in the indie/alternative section.

You should give 'em another click. Madonna is absolutely gorgeous. And Urb is right, they carry more prog influences than anything else. I absolutely hate 95-99% of modern alternative music, and I had no trouble latching onto them.

I would probably say post-punk/prog in my opinion.

Favourite album - Source Tags & Codes

Favourite songs (so far) - Another morning stoner, It was there I saw you.

Great band... I really see a mix of filter + NIN.

Ah, I really love this band. Their first album is surprisingly good once you get into it. Very nice "sophistipunk". Though I like their first three albums pretty equally. Everything after ST&C does nothing for me. The new album is supposedly going back to their roots, so it might be good.

Might see them again next month. Saw them on the Worlds Apart tour (the album I like least) and I was dead tired that night...the rest of the crowd seemed it too. Also it didn't seem like people wanted to hear the then-new material, and I think the band could tell. Anyway just trying to decide whether to see them or another show the same night. The new album was a great return to form so it could be a much better show than the last time. Different city, smaller venue too.

I saw them at a real small venue and stood front and center. They played mostly old stuff and it was great... maybe the best concert I've ever been to.

Lots of people seem to exclaim that they were disappointed with Worlds Apart.... but I just thought it was sublimely great! I especially loved Let it Dive... a song that still clutches at my heart...
