never heard of them. were they good? what do they do? any juggling? just trying to resurrect a rapidly dying thread.
I stayed up to watch just because Rainn Wilson was hosting. Arcade Fire wasn't bad, but I had never heard of them before.
I heard them for the first time on SNL last night and thought they were really good. I made a thread about them last night in the Music forum. I liked the music, but I thought the part where he smashed his guitar was kind of lame since it's been done so many times before. I liked the first song much better than the second. They are from Montreal, so it makes sense why they sound a bit like Godspeed You! Black Emperor, who are also from Montreal.
I first heard them 3 years ago while living in Ohio... a friend said "hey.. check this out, they are Canadian too". thought the first CNN sketch about Anna Nicole was pretty freaking funny
I like their music, though I never watch snl anymore and didn't know they were on... My brother sent me some mp3's of their stuff a few months ago, he lives in Montreal so I guess that's how he heard of them.
