I found this thread amusing, taking a look at the music forum for the first time in a long while, because by pure coincidence I was actually listening to M83 (pretty rare) while reading the first post. The other thing is that it made me recall that quite a while ago when I got M83's first record, I couldn't help but dismiss it a bit as a copycat of my favourite band, Mogwai. Fortunately, M83 pretty quickly found their own sound after that.
Anyway, Mogwai are still my favourite band, they just do it for me for whatever reason.
Also, before someone feels the need to point it out, I'm well aware that they also have their influences that in their early days were sometimes pretty obvious as well, it's the natural way of things and it's just an observation.
