Why they might be annoying:

    Even loyal fans of theirs say their live shows are crap.
    Alden and Nick were in an unorganized band called 'Poor Alexander.'
    They revived another band they were members of and planned a gig for them, only for the other two members to refused and Nick and Alden to play the show by themselves.

Why they might not be annoying:

    Although many believe their concerts are poorly performed, they showcase entertaining films, puppet shows and acts.
    Their name was recieved from a safe-sex information stand that had a unicorn on the pamphlet.
    They toured with many bands, including Hot Hot Heat, The Arcade Fire, Cat Power, The Walkmen and The Microphones.
    Their album 'Who Will Cut Our Hair When We're Gone?' has more than twenty instruments on it, including toy piano, accordion, drum machine, recorder, melodeon, percussion, synthesizer and regular objects.
    When 'Nike' offered them money if they could use 'I Was Born (A Unicorn)' in a commercial, they turned down the offer without regret.
    In late 2003, magazines started buzzing about them, calling their album one of the best of the year. Now they're getting air play on different MTV stations around the world.
