Any of you listen to them? been listening for some time, but just saw them in concert for the first time, and it was one of the best live performances i've seen.







all their songs are good

An average 'blah' hipster band. They're not terrible, but they're certainly not very good and show about 0 songwriting talent :/

you are wrong. rebecca black has 0 songwriting talent; the cold war kids have a very original style, although they might not be the most talented musicians, they know how to write songs. oh and not every indie band is full of hipster douches just to let you know
