Migala (Spanish Band) - any good?

They're buds with Will Oldham and some other Drag City types. They've got an album out on Sub Pop. They're Spaniards. And they're getting a fair share of gushing in American press.

So far, I've heard only a few Real Player samples that didn't exactly have me reaching for my Visa card. Imagine Manuel from Fawlty Towers on vocals with an Appendix Out tribute band. But who am I to say that ain't the sound of the future?

I downloaded the album out of mild interest and boredom the other day. It sucks. Atmospheric folky crap is _so_ mid-90's.

The singing in Spanish thing doesn't make them cool, Gerardo did it first.
