Electronic music makes my ears ache. I try to avoid listening to it anywhere I go (okay, maybe I’m being dramatic…I just can’t listen to it on a daily basis). Thank god I’m not the only person who’s part of the I-can’t-do-it-daily-electronic-music club and thank god some of those club members formed the surfer pop band (after being tired of playing electronic music themselves) The Drums.
The Drums, an American indie pop band (that somehow sound like they were raised and born in the UK), performed at

Prince covered Radiohead's Creep at Coachella. A clip wound up on YouTube. YouTube pulled the clip, and Radiohead is not thrilled. And so a digital rights fight is going to ensue.
Here's a blip from Pitchfork:
"Having footage of his own songs removed is within Prince's rights of course, but where should the line be drawn for covers?
Radiohead, as it happens, feel that right belongs to them. An Associated Press report picked up by Billboard.com today notes comments from a recent Radiohead interview (with the AP, presumably, although the report's not 100% clear on that) that suggest the band isn't pleased with Prince's decision to have those "Creep" cover videos taken down. As the AP report puts it:
"Thom Yorke said he heard about Prince's performance from a text message and thought it was "hilarious." Yorke laughed when his bandmate, guitarist Ed O'Brien, said the blocking had prevented even him from seeing Prince's version of their song.
"Really? He's blocked it?" asked Yorke, who figured it was their song to block or not. "Surely we should [have the right to] block it. Hang on a moment." Yorke added, "Well, tell him to unblock it. It's our...song."""
