I really like 'Silent Shout' (the song). Very Tangerine Dreamish...

Christ.

Ok, I'm going to buy the Knife album.

That's all I've been hearing about for the last month.. everywhere I look, it's all I see.

Alias & Tarsier mentioned it during their brief Good Records gig too.

FRACK, I swore I'd never buy anything profiled in Entertainment Weekly. FRACK, fine, buying now.

experimental synth pop from sweden

get their albums 'silent shout' and 'deep cuts'

Yep, surprisingly good.

Dare I say it's got an 80's vibe to it? Sometimes I can't help but think of Animotion while listening.

Only listened to a bit so far..

Yes it's mighty cool. I have Jose's album Veneer which has bunch of awesome acoustic songs...

The Knife is also great and Karin Dreijer's voice is the COOLEST.. although they have modulated it a bit too heavily on Silent Shout album IMHO. But I guess it fits the dark mood properly.
