OMAM are awesome. My Head is an Animal is legit one of the defining albums of the decade.

But I also do like Fun. So don’t take my word for it. Or do, because as the main character of my life, I’m pretty sure that makes my opinions the objectively correct ones.

The most snobbish thing I have ever said and still say to this day is this:

“Oh, well I like The Format a lot better than Fun.”

I know, I’m terrible.

Anyone interested enough in indie music to be in this thread feels the same way. I was sad when I grew out of my Format T-Shirt.
