Festivals?[edit]

Is it really necessary to list all the festivals that they've played at?78.105.233.220 (talk) 18:40, 16 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, maybe just include a few of the biggest festivals if anything at all 90.194.131.130 (talk) 14:54, 5 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Indie Pop???[edit]

Indie rock is a better defining genre'S due to the fact Let's Dance To Joy Division sounds a heck a lot more like an indie rock song. Thundermaster367 11:01, 2 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have all of their music so far. It falls between indie pop and indie rock in my opinion, so add rock and keep both if you wish. Operating 11:12, 2 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

...and elements of pop punk too. Thundermaster^TRUC 11:53, 13 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

They're signed to a subsidiary of Warner Records. Therefore they're not Indie at all. --82.47.121.108 (talk) 18:52, 11 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Indie has NOTHING to do with whether the band is truly independent. It's a style that was pioneered by bands that were once independent. 121.72.167.71 (talk) 08:44, 19 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Oh man you are so wrong it's upsetting. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.105.233.220 (talk) 18:38, 16 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

And who are probably spinning in their yet-to-be-filled graves at how the meaning has been bastardised by dull musicians. Tony2Times (talk) 00:23, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I tried adding "Utter Crap" to their list of genres. It got reverted, even though it is a much better description than "indie pop." —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.72.252.46 (talk) 02:44, 14 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Their record label is a sub-label from Warner, and it is indie. And calling them indie also refers to the music style, as mentioned beforehand. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 119.12.182.182 (talk) 00:59, 10 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Patrick Stewart[edit]

I'm pretty sure that he's in the band. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 160.94.173.141 (talk) 21:38, 6 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No^{[citation needed]} --Rodhull andemu 21:41, 6 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Not at all. See WP:PROVEIT. Meanwhile this disruption is both boring and tiresome. <scouse>"I don't like dickheads"</scouse>. --Rodhull andemu 22:01, 6 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Second Album[edit]

Does anyone else agree that the current section on the new album seems like it comes from band PR? Lots of positive comments about the style and very little actual information such as a release date. Have added a citation template to the section, if no interviews or press releases can be cited I suggest the section just list the name of the album and its expected release date until the album actually comes out.

An Actual Wombat picture[edit]

Why is there a picture of an actual Wombat..? ISeriouslyNeedALife (talk) 23:31, 13 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Because some dickhead thinks it's amusing. It isn't, and I've removed it. Rodhull andemu 23:53, 13 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Professional Review[edit]

I write for a website, American Music Channel, that constantly publishes reviews for different albums, This Modern Glitch being a recent one. I was wondering if any of the editors would be able to publish our rating to the professional review section. Here is the link: http://americanmusicchannel.com/features/reviews/5-5-2011/modern-glitch . Thanks in advance! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mphox2 (talk • contribs) 14:34, 7 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
