do any of you cretins commenting on the charts actually understand how they work? Besides that i think you may have missed the point of the group.

Just checking to see if I would fit, the answer is 'yes', but I shouldn't play to much Radiohead (it's # 21), and that's peer pressure I couldn't handle. Looking at the groups top 10, it's not that varied and non-mainstream anyway :P

Too bad I misread the 1% as 10%... no way I'll have 160000 scrobbles anytime soon *sigh*

The argument over "elitist vs non-elitist" seems ridicules to me. Who cares. I'm better than you because i listen to obscure music. I'm better than you because I listen to mainstream music. Pshaw! I like music. I like diversity. Groups like this help me dig for that music I haven't heard yet...and that is what is important to me.
