Thou Shall Not Make Repetitive Generic Music

So, according to Wikipedia, these guys were at Glastonbury and Coachella last year, thus illustrating why I have to suck it up and go to the big events. They're unbelievably amazing, incredible intelligent hip-hop lyrics out of the UK, with catchy beats and some really amazingly sensitive lyrics. Like, should put Usher to shame.

I've got the whole album Angles and while there are other big hits like this ("The beat that my heart skipped," "Thou shalt always Kill,") there are also slow almost love songs like "Tommy" and "Waiting for the beat to kick in" (wait for the final half).

Highly recommended, not just for the hits :)

And? I'm totally going to cop his style.
