Anybody heard of this band before? I just heard one of their songs "No Rest for the Wicked" on the radio for the first time last week, but they have several great songs. If you're into rock, you will love these guys. Just thought ya'll might enjoy some of their songs as well.

I don't remember anything sounding like this in 96? Better than most crap I've been hearing lately.

Then you're looking in the wrong places.

sounds VERY 90s-ish to me. not saying I don't like it, at all. and of course, just about anything would be better than anything you'll hear on the radio today.

just has almost a neo-bohemian, garage, early beck feel to me....almost like an attempt to seem lo-fi, while maintaining a relatively "radio" hook.

i saw them do "aint no rest for the wicked" on letterman about 2 weeks ago and thought it was good despite the fact that the singer is a complete spaz. although i do enjoy their sound, i find their material to be incredibly weak lyrically. one of my friends and his dad hung out with the singer at bonnaroo though.

This is why Raleigh radio sucks. They've played the hell out of this song on satellite radio and regular radio when I was in the PNW last month, yet we don't have a single radio station here that would play something like this.

99.5 in greenville has beat this (as well as their entire playlist) to death for the past two months.
