This sounds exciting

Is this guy also in the band / the sole member of the band known as figurine?

I somehow recall that he is, but I may be wrong.

I'm pretty sure he's not the sole member of Figurine!

could be wrong though.

This confused me

I always knew him as Jimmy Tamborello.

I think he's only half of Figurine.

Oh good

I like figurine and grizzly bear.

Why anybody is likely to care I do not know.

yeh

there are more people in figurine. david and meredith according to these liner notes, but they all use the surname 'figurine'. in the postal service "james figurine" goes by the name of "jimmy tamborello", so i think this album is probably the work of "mr. tamborello" rather than "mr figurine". if that makes any sense and we want to be picky.
