I listened to the shit out of the self-titled 5ive Style album back in college, though it's been years since I gave it a spin.  I remember them being a funky version of the instrumental band Tortoise, so I was really thrown off when the title track had vocals.  It's entirely possible they had occasional song with vocals then, but my brain has totally forgotten about it.  Not sure I like them with singing, to be honest.  Music still sounds good though.  The B-side is a cover of Brian Eno's "Burning Airlines Give You So Much More," whic is adequate but just makes me want to listen to the original.
