Excellent article, although I'm still of the opinion that an AI character indistinguishable from a human character is only a positive.

I found out about this band from watching Wristcutters: A love story (available on play it now, Netflix) as this band is featured throughout it.
All around, not a style I thought I'd find myself liking, but I've really taken to this band.
