Were too much fun
They, to my ears, have a fuller sound than some synth bands (like Glass Candy):
two drummers (that demented one playing standing up - I wanted to tell him "you remind me of no one else - and that's a good thing!), two bass players, three keyboards, but the one playing a demented cowbell - how can you not like a band that has a maniacal cowbell player?
And the main front guy, doing these gestures that were like a cross between Tom Waits trying to do some aerobic arm things and Mick Jagger, all loose, then playing a guitar behind his back
