Why they might be annoying:

VV chain smokes and she has a raspy talking voice because of it.
They are called 'The White Stripes with sex and drugs.'

Why they might not be annoying:

They're not over-exposed in the media, which makes them an indie underground hit.
They like to experiment with their music and use many different instruments while in the studio.
Hotel's voice sounds like a mix between Nico and P.J. Harvey.
They are influenced by The Velvet Underground, Rolling Stones, The Jesus & Mary Chain and P.J. Harvey.
