soon to be? haha, i found out about them because when give up came out in early '03, they had such great heights up for download on mtv.com. so i think they've already reached that point. my friend JUST burned me the cd a couple weeks ago, even though i've been wanting it since it came out (i downloaded most of the songs, but it's not the same, you know?). but yeah, postal service has been mainstream for awhile.

I've had the Postal Service's Give Up CD for quite some time... I guess they are a little mainstream.. even my cousin's heard of them!  (It was mainly through me.. probably.)

well i guess what you consider mainstream is different than what i think it is. but they've spent more than 85 weeks on the billboard electronic album charts (and give up has been number one since august '04 i think). also, you can get their cds in best buy and target, which usually have a pretty limited selection and usually carry only albums they know will sell (at least that's the case where i live). furthermore, in august '04 they had already sold 300,000 copies of give up. and you think THAT'S not mainstream? but either way, mainstream or not, they still make great music, and that's what should count.
edit: i just checked and they're also #8 on the independent album chart, which means they're pretty big, seeing as give up came out almost two years ago. also, give up is the second highest selling subpop (record lable) cd ever, second only to nirvana's bleach. |

well what i consider mainstream is the music they play on kiss FM that most people listen to. (keep in mind i live in a small town in indiana. not much diversity, not a lot of choices, not a lot of exposure.) i know two people, including myself, that go to my school and listen to postal service or have even heard of postal service (not from the two of us). so....postal service isn't really mainstream here..it's not like we live in LA or something.
btw, love your xanga. and your sig, person under him. |

they did get signed! by atlantic, 99% sure..i was quite happy for them.
postal service actually seems more mellow to me..(perhaps because of the lack of guitar and drums for the most part?) <333 ted leo and the pharmacists. |
