It's a Hammond organ with a ton of reverb. There is also a guitar swell somewhere there. 
Trendsetter win!

Ok, i think i found another band with the same sound.
Art Bears, album: Hopes and Fears, the first song: On Suicide. Can not find a link though. Sounds the same to me.

Well that is pretty hard to say. How can i describe a sound?
It starts from second one, when the vocals begin. Right from the start when he says "The Moon..." and when he says "Down" after 2 seconds it changes a bit, sounds like it goes down  to a lower note.
