I know they're not IDM (what the fuck are they, anyway?), but they fucking rule in my opinion. Every song just kicks ass.
They haven't got enough albums, though; been trying to look at suggested alternative bands on various websites such as Tricky, but they're nowhere even close, and the tunes aren't anywhere near as cool, although they do sound interesting; I'll keep listening.
Anybody know of anything simular?

Most people would describe them as "Trip Hop" but their latest album is a bit more rocky and housey in places than thier past ones. They've got a new joint album/dvd out next year I believe so not too long to wait now.

Heh, rad; yeah, trip-hop is what I thought it was, although it's usually a term I use to describe hiphop with much more electronica than usual.
Rad, new album? Can't wait.
Actually, additionally to my question above - they got any (decent) b-sides around the place?

I don't have any of their singles except for the "low fives remixes" (one good track one okay one) both quite housey- you can play them in clubs no problem. They've done a couple of decent remixes for other people/collaborations. Their remix of Every Me, Every You by Placebo is good.

Man, nobody knows of any artists like Sneaker Pimps?
Surely there's some out there...?

Nope, there's no one quite the same as far as I know of. I wish there was... Not too similair, but if you like sneaker pimps, you'll probably like Portishead too. I recommend their first album, "Dummy". There is some collaboration track between the pimps & portishead floating around P2P called "waterbabies".
