Despite sounding exactly like what they are, i.e. Brooklyn hipster music, this band reminds me of Belle & Sebastian. I’m not sure why; it may be Kip Berman’s voice. This track was on my workout mix for quite a while. Again, I’m not sure why; it may have been the driving drum + “don’t check me out” chant at the end.

I see what you mean about being slightly reminiscent of Belle & Sebastian. I think it’s the voice which is similar, both in tone and cadence. The music, though, is more energetic.
