How many of you guys like the band Phoenix? I never really heard of them until this year and am digging their new cd, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. They actually won the grammy this year for best alternative album. Anyone else fans?

They're a pretty huge Indie band, but not even in the same neighborhood as Frightened Rabbit.

They sound like a combo of New Order and Martin Ferry's ABC.

haha they're definitely not emo. And not that I particularly care, as there are so many other great Indie bands, but you said so yourself you listened to one song, so it's not like you listened to nearly enough to get a solid opinion with.
What about The National, Spoon, Arcade Fire, The Airborne Toxic Event, Glasvegas, The Postal Service, Band of Horses, My Morning Jacket, Monsters of Folk...etc, etc.
