Everything Everything are a much buzzed about four piece from Manchester, England.
Allmusic gives these guys a RIYL of Franz Ferdinand and Vampire Weekend. That probably is accurate though possibly misleading. They certainly fit in that same genre of the most accessible side of the indie rock pool. The band's strength is that it jumps genres, which will make you recall a few similar bands (the first that pops in my mind is TV on the Radio, but you may name others).
That said, the band I see consistently mentioned in reviews is Radiohead. I think a more accurate comparison would be one of the 'sons of Radiohead' (EE have a lot of moments that sound like Elbow, and Coldplay (and to a lesser extent, Muse) is probably more accurate than the comparison to Thom's gang.
I will temper expectations some- it's not entirely life-altering, but it is some enjoyable music. Arc is the new album.
