Instrumentally, I like this better than the Moose. The vocals can go far away though.

I haven't even played those videos, but the idea of a band inspired largely by pomplamoose makes suicide sound like an appealing choice.

just want to say that i liked that first louis cole / genevieve a. video. not kidding! liked it! thought it was clever when they shot the guitar with the slingshot! liked the magnifying glass over the eye! liked it!

The music sounds like those awful tuneless 'musical' doorbells from the 80s. Everything about them, the "music", the awful dead voice singing, stupid hats and mirrors and keyboards on stands and fuck you don't even know if you are being ironic or childish or moronic and the whole mess just makes me want to stab stab STAB.

FWIW I like these guys a lot better than Pomplamoose. Except for the Bacon song.

what was that afterschool special where the teachers pitted students against each other, and then at the end they were like "lol you're acting just like nazis" and projected a big picture of Hitler on the wall? anyway i think pomplamoose is going to attract bigger and bigger audiences and then be like "o you like our songs about treating yourself to bacon and casual sex? well behold what you REALLY LIKE" and they'll project a big picture of Satan.

"we only have pomplamoose enough for a single month of hyundai commercials," they said, but lo the commercials continued to air for eight weeks more.

cuckoo fundies love youtube!
Until recently, Justin was a regular boy who played hockey and soccer in Stratford, Ontario (population 30,000). He taught himself piano, guitar and trumpet, took drum lessons and yowled pop tunes while he brushed his teeth. He lived in low-income housing with Ms. Mallette, who prayed that God would use her son as a modern Prophet Samuel, a voice to his generation.A youth pastor, perhaps? Or even a singer on a Christian label, she thought?So when an Atlanta-based hip-hop manager named Scooter Braun called nearly two years ago, Ms. Mallette was confused. “I prayed, ‘God, you don’t want this Jewish kid to be Justin’s man, do you?’ ” she recalled.

Conte and Dawn aren't married or engaged, and that frustrates a great number of Pomplamoose fans — especially since the group's best-known cover is a treatise on the pitfalls of failing to propose.

the Pomplamoose of YouTube is really them — with the result that, as Dawn puts it, "people liking our music is also linked pretty heavily to how much people like us."

Ha, I was about to post that same sentence.
These guys bug me in so many ways that it's hard to find a way in, to find the one thing that bugs me more than the others. This thread was useful in that pretty much anything that was posted as twee or fey that they were compared to was indeed preferable, but that still doesn't quite explain how they hit on the formula for maximum irritability. I guess I should spend another four hours rereading the thread and see which arguments convinced me the last time.
