Why they might be annoying:

    Britt said 'I think what differentiates us most from other rock bands is that we're classy.'
    Their sound is somewhat similar to the Pixies and Wire.
    Elektra records dropped them after only 4 months (1998).
    Spoon released 'The Agony of Laffitte' and 'Laffitte Don't Fail Me Now' in response to Elecktra's Ronn Laffitte who fired them.
    They admitted the compromised to get 'Sneaks' released.

Why they might not be annoying:

    The band grew from a noisy copycat style to being unique.
    TV Series 'Veronica Mars,' 'Chuck,' 'Scrubs,' 'Numb3rs,' 'Bones' and 'The Simpsons' featured their songs.
    Their song 'The Underdog' can be heard in 'Cloverfield.'
    They provide music for the video game 'Matt Hoffman's Pro BMX 2.'
    Their name was chosen from a song title by the German avant-garde band Can.
