The brute.
I did browse Awolnation
I'll find out and report back, there's so many things it could be. It overlaps with categories I enjoy listening to but what they do inside that category is a different matter.

every song reminds me vaguely of another song. He's got one called "Soul Wars" that mimicks "I'm Afraid of Americans" by Bowie near exactly at 33 seconds in. Grooveshark is a good site for listening to the whole Megalithic Symphony album that is getting attention.
