It reminds me of The Flaming Lips' earlier stuff, a la Transmissions From The Satellite Heart. Lots of pop sensibilities embellished in weird noises. Thumbs up!

Might get a thursday night show. I see them being too small to get a late night one of the three main nights.

They used to be called Management, but recently changed it up. I figured the pronounciation would remain the same, but the DJs on XM are always pronouncing each letter, so who knows? I realize XM DJs aren't the best authority, but it's all I got!

picked up oracular spectacular after the lineup came out. Really good stuff. Had never heard them before. Really like the electronic influence.

Another act I had never heard of that has me really interested is Ladytron. They are even more electronic.

I just heard them. I like "Time to Pretend," and "Kids" seems to be the party song for people.

These guys are excellent. Same dealio, checked them out when I saw their name on the line up. 'Time to Pretend' is quite epic, dripping in synthy goodness, and very well written lyrically as well. 'Weekend Wars' 'The Youth' 'Electric Feel' 'Kids' 'The Handshake' are all awesome tunes too. But the one that's stickin' out the most for me is also the least done up track they have; 'Pieces of What'. It's just got a timeless quality to it, yet still slighty offcentered in a cynical, jaded, 21st century kinda way. I'm pretty much rambling ridiculousness at this point, which I guess means I'm fallin' for these guys. They've definitly made their way onto my Can't Miss list.
