I think the fact I'm am willingly listening to this (and even enjoying it somewhat) proves my musical boundaries have been officially smashed.

Hmm. Never heard of it or them. Bio and a couple of reviews make them sound interesting, although I dispute the "the biggest three piece in the world!" label within their Bio. The reference to Oceansize does pique my interest.

Yeah, I checked the album out on Grooveshark because of how much they got talked up on PA. I couldn't even get past the 3rd track. Am I missing something? The vocals and music couldn't be less interesting. Maybe I'll try the other tracks another day, but for now:  First listen to this one as well.
