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.
Jesus.

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 think this is true, they are obviously horrible people

On an improbably sunny midwinter day, amid green pastures and meandering cows, two unassuming musicians are waging a revolution against the established order of the recording industry. SATAN HIMSELF.

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.

Hyundai should set up one of those keep your hands on the car contests with the added challenge of a constantly jammin' pomp-moose to make it even tougher.
