Anyone else like these guys? All I've heard is their newest album, Silent Shout, but according to reviews the rest of their catalog is good as well. It's weird electronic pop with vocals that have bizarre effects put on them to make them almost non-human. Good stuff. Discuss.

Silent Shout is great. One of my favorite records from this year. Like DMD, it took a little while for it to grow on me.

Silent Shout is shaping up to be one of my favourite records of the year.

I discovered The Knife after I heard lead singer Karin on the Royksopp track, 'What Else Is There.' Silent Shout is a brilliant album of dark, twisted electropop. Definitely one of the albums of the year and highly recommened but the distorted vocals on some tracks take some time to get used to. Karin's voice reminds me of Bjork.

The songs that I've heard are kind of hard to listen to.

We Share Our Mother's Health is definitely one of the best singles released this year. The animated video is awesome

I couldn't get into it on the first listen. Maybe it needs a few more spins.
