These guys forsure deserve their own thread. Great male/female harmonies, folky indie rock, amazing drummer.
Download their only album "Hometowns".

I'll say it again - the first song is a direct ripoff of Bush's Glycerine.

The chord progression is the exact same - the violins come straight out of Glycerine, and the vocals follow suit.

It's just slightly sped up (slightly), and there are killer drums over it.

there are thousands of songs with the same chord progression... i guess i can kinda see it... but the drums and the female vocals and the chorus in the RAA song are all different.
