When they burst onto the mostly accidental Canadian music scene in 1995, their groundbreaking sound was largely alien to the ears of listeners, professional and casual alike.

Ultimately, the controversy hurt the electronic group, who were famously denied a Mercury Prize in 1997 after the judging committee refused to award "some no-good, genre-bending punks."
