What's the fascination? Never heard anything by them that I liked.

Their cover of "Blitzkrieg Bop" is pretty cool.

I posted that MP3 on this board back when we were allowed to.

I have 4 of their CDs, and I get why people love 'em and hate 'em. The critics love 'em because of their varied repertoire and overall musicianship. At the same time, they can get annoying with long jamfests/feedback loops and songs that don't really go anywhere.

My favorite YLT songs include "Cherry Chapstick", "Our Way to Fall", "Pass the Hatchet, I Think I'm Goodkind" and "The Room Got Heavy".
