That's what I thought they were like

Well the lyrics are like that. Only the music is far more interesting.

Do they have radio friendly sing along choruses and commercial beats suited for MTV though?

I have two version of Shot By Both Sides, not sure which one I want for my iPod

Depends on what you mean by radio friendly choruses, I mean you could sing along with almost any chorus. However when you were to ask an average current gen MTV watching, 14 year old kid he'd probably say ''Man, dat shit be lame and borin' yo'z!''

They don't have commercial beats.

Actually, why would you even ask that if I said the music is interesting. Are you saying I like mainstream pop and shit, ****?

I was being sarcastic and insulting to my own musical taste actually. I've found out recently that I'm more prone to listen to songs by bands which have catchy choruses and easy to take sound, which annoys me, so I took a dig at myself.

Ah. Have you checked out De Staat yet?

Guess I'll listen to them though, 'cause I never gave them a chance before.

Not yet, I haven't really had the energy (awebrow) for anything new since you mentioned them. Although I might have youtubed one of their songs, I can't remember. Once I get some money might get their album online though.

I see. You know, if you didn't like them it's okay. You could always listen to something easy and lame, like Coldplay and stuff, and still keep your 'indie' image, hmm, hmm?

Might just download it illegally until I get any money though

I don't have no indie image! I'm a full pop punk, with my spikey up blue hair, and ripped jeans, and listening to Rage Against The machine and pretending I understand their music, man. Straight edge for life.

Do De Staat sing in english or dutch?

English.

Cool. Not that it's a huge problem if they did sing in Dutch, I listen to plenty of bands who don't sing in English.

Listening to The Fantastic Journey Of The Underground Man

And my god

This is... brilliant

Video's pretty awesome too

Listening to Wait For Evolution now, this is still awesome
