Some think of Peter Gabriel (I can see that) and some think of Greg Laswell (okay) but, for some reason, the opening minutes of this song made me think of a really experimental Elbow tune.  

ETA (edited to add):  I really like PG, GL and Elbow so it's all good as far as I'm concerned.
 
"ETA (edited to add)" — an acronym and a spelled-out version?  "P.S." would've worked.  Pretty good tune.

I still get blown away that this is NOT PG??!!...It sure sounds like anything he's done, and the vocals may as well be his....

according to the last Wiki editor 

I swear I heard them on another radio station performing some type of rap.  I was puzzled over whether I had the right name of the band, and whether it was the very same band we hear on RP.

RP has introduced me to some awesome music, but these guys and Porcupine Tree have to top that list. I thank you over and over.

Yeah. Better with headphones rather than room monitors too. Much more going on there with the rhythm than I was picking up on speakers.

Played quietly, I'm hearing Gentle Giant here.

I'm afraid to turn it up and ruin the hope that someone's trying that hard again....

ditto

I think I like the song. I'll need to hear it and the singer some more before I can tell since I'm *so* mixing him up with PG.

I'll have to play that track when I get in front of my iTunes again; that must have been an interesting sound if he and Daddy G were both singing...

Saw TVotR live at Sasquatch a couple of years ago and they rocked.  I don't watch a lot of live acts on TV as it skews the experience.
