Anyone else listen to them? They have the #1 album in the UK. It slike a rap/spokenword/techno/punk type of music. Very original. I like em.

i try to keep an open mind, especially when it comes to music and other art... also, i've only listened to that first single "let's push things forward" and snippets of a few other songs... having said all that, i absolutely cannot stand the streets... the accent, i can get used to, and the fact that it's more spoken word than rap is fine too. but the very first time i heard the song was when i saw the video on mtv, and i seriously thought it was a joke. when i realized it was an actual video for an actual song, i really didn't know how to respond... i think a big part of the reason i can't stand it is because of the video, the way he carries himself in it, and that damn music. i just couldn't get into the music he was reciting over... it was plain wack...

but who knows, i guess the brits are diggin it...

Neer heard of em. I don't really like techno or punk, either so thier style might now appeal to me.
