I can see why people like Riverside but it's a tad 'eavy for me. It avoids being totally ponderous but skirts dangerously close. Moe Tar otoh are doing something a bit interesting. Doubt it would ever make it onto high rotation but there's a level of subtlety that's lacking (for me) in Riverside.

MoeTar was good if a bit cringeworthy at times. I'll go with Riverside, who have one the coolest overall sounds of any modern band. Kind of like Floyd, in that sense.

Voted for MoeTar, one of my favourite modern bands, though it won't be enough to push them forward. Sad to see them go. Riverside are a good live band (and will be playing in the US in the fall), but I don't find their recording efforts particularly impressive.
