<<snip>>
A willingness to stand apart from 2007s trend for jerky, dance-friendly
postpunk is a unifying musical theme that links this older generation of
breakthrough artists. Ive been telling young bands I meet for the past 10
years to check out Gang of Four and Wire, [John] Collins [New
Pornographers]points out. Theyre the greats. But as to where that fits
into what we do, its several layers underneath. Its not something new that
weve discovered and that we want to bring to people because we feel like
nobody has heard it before. It would be bizarre just to be emulating the
stuff we love. Trying to become the next dance-punk stars seems kind of
irrelevant.

Didn't "post-rock" envelop that in the '90s?
