DeVotchKa

   I just went to see Little Miss Sunshine, and got hooked by parts of the movie's soundtrack, which I thought evoked "post-rock" sensibilities remisnescent of bands like Do Make Say Think. I stayed for the credits at the end, to find out that the name of the band who wrote most of the film's score was DeVotchKa, from Denver.

Would you guys and girls recommend some of their albums? I just downloaded a song from their album "How it ends", and I must say I'm enjoying it. I find the ethnic influences as well as the prominence of rythmic sections particularly inspiring. Recommendations of bands that sound similar would be appreciated as well.

Thanks a lot.
