A Transmission from Fol Chen:
“You know that mysterious black object that the creepy family is staring at on the cover of Led Zeppelin’s “Presence” album? Fol Chen sound like that… But we don’t sound like Led Zeppelin. (We actually do a little.) Instead, we sound a bit like Prince with Amon Duul II and a children’s religious revival, not to mention Hot Chip, Pink Floyd, Gwen Stefani, Pere Ubu, Danielson Famile, Scritti Politti, Boards of Canada, The Blow, and Pulp. (Mostly.) We are using secret powers and the guidance of legendary DJ Donna Donna to combat our nemesis, John Shade. We are cryptic and joyful and we would like you to dance.”

my college radio kept playing "In Ruins" and it got stuck in my head so I looked them up.

i'm a huge fan of electronic music, and i just can't get into this. "in ruins" is about the only song i find catchy enough to play again, but overall i find them exhaustingly mediocre

I hate to be so harsh but I can't hold my tongue... these guys at their best fall far, far short of mediocrity. Too each his own I guess, but I just don't get this.
