The Evangelicals, a foursome from post-Flaming Lips Oklahoma,
energetic, catchy and lo-fi garage-rock So Gone (Misra, 2006)
while adopting a "maximalist" aesthetic for the
lush, thick, operatic and stately tunes of
The Evening Descends (Dead Oceans, 2008).
Paperback Suicide, the parable of a writer who kills himself just to hear his own obituary, is an appropriate metaphor for the whole "maximalist" genre that tends to (over)kill its songs just to hear other musicians describe how maximalist they are.
