TVOTR is amazing. I'm sad that there is a very low likelihood that we'll hear new music from them. If you're looking for similar sounds, Menomena has the same feel.
Very true. TAOS specifically comes to mind as similar to TVOTR.
I also always felt like ATD-I had a pretty similar vibe. Anything from Relationship Of Command
Love that Letterman (and still some with Colbert) really had some great music acts on.
I heard Local H's cover first, which also nails it
Same here. Heard it for the first time when I saw local h live.
I watched this exact performance so, so many times during my late teen years. Still so killer, miss them.
