I really like Pandora. It is a great way for people to find new music that they like. We are really excited to be among the bands available there.

Pandora uses the Music Genome Project which analyzes different aspects of music (like chord structures, instrumentation, etc.) and categorizes the music accordingly. Unfortunately they seem to have our DNA confused with another band called "Walrus" that has 2 other albums there. So if you search for "The Walrus" you'll find 3 albums, as if all 3 were by the same band. Since the music of the other "Walrus" is quite different from ours, some confusion is sure to happen. They say they are working on fixing it...

Meanwhile if you choose our album "Uncovered" the music does seem to be categorized correctly.

Anyway I have been listening to Pandora for some time now, and I recommend checking it out. It is especially cool on my Squeezebox - I can listen to my "radio staion" even when I am not at my computer...
