No, not the guy who did the X-Files theme tune, but a band consisting of four people.

Has anyone heard of these guys? I was working in Stylus this evening while they were playing and they were chuffing ace! Never heard of 'em before tonight, but will definitely be checking out some stuff asap.

Parts of it sounded like Coldplay, then a bit like Interpol, then just full on trance/techno.

Not too dissimilar to my own band, actually.....

I really like the album, if nothing else it's well written pop music, and well produced.

Apparently they used to write songs for a load of chart acts, I'm pretty sure they wrote Toxic for Britney Spears!

I hear they are an almighty force of archaic futurism.

Check out Mike Ronsons remix of Animal by Miike snow

http://rcrdlbl.com/search/miike+snow

Also some pretty good remixes of other Miike Snow tracks on there.

N.B. they didnt write Toxic for Britney Spears, they produced it and it won them a Grammy, personally I think they are better live than on record though.

I should be getting the new album from Petter & The Pix soon. Petter is the brother of one of the Miike Snow guys.
