Yeah, HEALTH's very LIARS-like all the way around. They've got some Black Dice-sounding electronic stuff though. But as I mentioned on the 2nd of 3 HEALTH threads, all their songs sound quite different still... I mean, I think they're original enough, you know? I don't think there's anything down that route worth debating -- they sound different ENOUGH, it's not a blatant ripoff of anything. My problem is, they're just kinda boring. They're not the best songwriters in the world (then again, neither are LIARS). Just an average band all the way around, nothing too different or amazing or worth getting excited about. But not bad.
The Mae Shi are really great though. Really forward-thinking and exciting. They get annoying, but they're definitely original and fun to listen to. Never heard Mika Miko.
