I really like the hard-rock techno industrial stuff by them. Extremely pop, without the inane lyrics. The Knife is kind've similar, I love them as well.

Any other bands like this I should know about?

it's Holden's girlfriend here
are we just talking things similar to the knife? or anything?
cos in with the knife type genre i could say Crystal Castles, Alice Practice is their best song.
Urm...... Air are kinda electro/industrial,

and if you don't know already Pop Levi used to be ladytron's bassist and he's got an amazing new album out though you might like his first one 'Blue Honey'
Heard of Santogold? Creater on a V05 advert, chromatics, client, datarock!, IAMX.
thats all i can think of for now that you might like.

^ this is in no way my (as in me Holden) opinion, i think its all shite,
especially crystal castles, it sounds like an internet dial tone in my humble opinion

shame on you Dean for having such crappy taste,
("Destroy Everything You Touch" by Ladytron is pretty good tho)

I love that song. Honestly, that album was only worthwhile on account of that song. Before that release, I had loved "Light and Magic" and "604 / True Mathematics." I actually ignored Velocifero for a long time because the album before that was total shit.

And yes, I love artists ranging from the really serious Leonard Cohen and Snog to the playful Ladytron and The Knife.
