I couldn't find any board discussion re this band. Somewhere along the way, I nicked [i]Going Left Right[/i] and it's been on heavy rotation lately. Any band who issues [i]Sub-Stance[/i] has got to be good, right?
Were they a legit band or just posers?

I liked them a lot. Three singles and an album made for a short-lived career. "Going Left Right" was a big favorite (I still have the 12 inch vinyl version) but "Is Vic There?" was great too.

My favorite is "Is Vic There", Is Vic there beep beep Is Vic There.
Hey, Where have you been Brock? How about that lunch [:D]
Drop me a line bud. They Might Be Giants are coming to town next month, by the way [;)]

Got the original Collection when it first came out and the b-sides are very good, 'She's Expecting You' is a cleverly written track. The rest are all right I suppose but nothing special.

Then a couple of years ago they released a new collection featuring demo tracks dropping the value of mine down to next to zero. [:(]
