Finally found this record after months of scouring every crevice of the Internet. Australian duo with schizophrenic piano beats and super clean blast beats. They'll be playing with Mike Patton in San Francisco sometime in May. Check them out if you live in the area.

Duncan Dhu - Duncan Dhu

Download

If Caifanes was the Spanish Cure, then Duncan Dhu was the Spanish Smiths. Maybe I'm a little biased because the singer's solo stuff introduced me to the Smiths, but there are a lot of similarities between both groups: jangly pop guitar and pompous front man are the first two that come to mind.
Anyway, this was a band that I listened to a lot growing up so I was very surprised to learn that Creation records had released one of their albums. Actually it's a compilation of previously released material to introduce the band to an English audience.
