I could never get into the Mom-Rock era, but their ealier more punk-inspired stuff is pretty great. They were huge fans of Minneapolis bands like Replacements and Hüsker Dü, and it really showed. They even covered the Plimsouls on one of their early albums.

this is talentless and uninspired
sure sounds like "momrock" >>131987306 to me

Superstar Car Wash [Metal Blade, 1993] :(

slide is a million times better than iris
reminds me of fuel 'shimmer' which is another dope song
doesn't have to be the most musically brilliant song but it makes me feel comfy
good music to listen to when you're caught in something emotional that you can't put your finger on but know will come to an answer soon

Nah i think they're appropriately rated. This must be what it feels like to gen-xers when millennials started jerking off to steely Dan.

Except Steely Dan is good and these fags are garbage.

unironically my mom dragged me to their concert a few years ago and John Rzeznik is my idol now. definitely the coolest and most fun frontman I've ever seen. they also have a number of really good songs other than the big hits you've heard on the radio.

>>131988636
lol your mom still shlicks to that guy

>>131988707
shit I would too

>>131987211
They had one good song they wrote on accident, then a bunch of mediocre attempts to recreate it

>>131988064
Terrible opinion. "Slide" is the "Lost World" to Iris' "Jurassic Park"

>>131988715
gayyyyyy

>>131988750
Name is a good song

the best song is Sympathy
runner ups are Black Balloons and Always Know Where You Are

their mom rock stuff sucked but I liked them up to Superstar Carwash.

their late 90s stuff was overplayed as fuck and sappy ballads for middle aged women. their og era they were an ok replacements ripoff gin blossoms kind of sound but nothing special
