Do you think this is the best?

I’m sure Idiot Pilot’s Strange We Should Meet Here will or already has either be(en) praised as an ambitious, original hybrid of rock, electronica, and (a skewed definition of) hardcore, or dismissed as blatant Radiohead aping with random screaming and keyboard loops thrown in. My opinion of the two teenagers from Bellingham, WA (could’ve sworn I just wrote this), lies somewhere in the middle.
It’s quite obvious the base majority of Idiot Pilot’s sound is derived from the droning, equally melodramatic and melancholic, nightmarish college rock of early Radiohead, but other than the spot-on Thom Yorke impression, it’s where the comparison just about comes to a screeching halt. Where Idiot Pilot attempt separating themselves is with the early-video-game-sound palette of synthesizer effects and pathological screaming at points.
