Anybody listen to this band from Las Vegas? Their first single from their debut album, Hot Fuss, is called Somebody Told Me. I definately suggest checking out the album. It sounds a bit like a male version of The Sounds if you ask me, what with all the synthesizer etc etc.

the album is pretty good, if u listen to the whole thing through i find that the songs kind of run together, but it wasn't bad at all

I don't know about their other songs, but I hate 'somebody told me', I find it dull and un-innovative. Maybe other songs on the CD are better..?

if youre so into the new hip 'synth' rockish crap, listen to the spits. they blow it all outta the water. and look for someone to drop a record from a band called the divining rods. theyre shopping it around, and its amazing

N sync is pretty good, got some good vocals and ochepella. The Christmas album is the best though, because it has a good theme throughout the whole compact disc.

The Killers are great!! Mr. Brightside and Smile Like You Mean It are really good...they give off this sorta emo vibe to me, but not in a bad way....i can just imagine them being plastered all over the OC this year
