Menomena

De Menomena dice Filter que "are a glitch-pop band from Portland made up of Brent Knopf on guitar and keyboards, Justin Harris on bass, and Danny Seim on percussion. Possibly named after The Muppet Show song "Mah Nà Mah Nà", they're the kind of band that veers easily from style to style without losing your interest. "Wet And Rusting" is the title-track to an EP and also the first song to be lifted from their third album Friend and Foe.
A cacophony of tight drums and plinky plonkity piano, it's the sort of thing you might expect to hear in a remix of a Mercury Rev track. Midway through the song another voice appears and you'll find yourself checking to make sure there aren't two songs playing at once."
