one year passes...
One listen in it certain sounds like them, not sure whether it will stand on its own or just remind me of his earlier work, but it does have Captain Kirk on it so that's something.
How have I never heard of this band in the last 20 years? (rhetorical question, don't answer.) Listening to the first album right now. It's not earthshattering but it's really, really fun.
They never got that big, but for those inclined to like what they do, they are really, really good at it.
In the early 80s I was more into The Replacements or Pylon or whatever and kind of looked down my nose at the sort of fey British pop my roommate liked, but 40 years on this kind of sound really touches a nostalgic chord. And yes, they're great at it, their pastiche is spot on.
