I remember getting this disc by accident because I didn't return my postcard to Columbia House. (Some of you know what I am talking about). It became a cd in constant rotation in the house I was renting at the time between my and my roommates. We all loved it.
Favorite tracks: Birdhouse In Your Soul, Istanbul (Not Constantinople), Twisting, Someone Keeps Moving My Chair.
Least Favorite: Minimum Wage. Only because my roommate used this as our Saturday early morning wake up song after a hard night of drinking to wake up everyone in the house. Ugh.

There's no doubt that they're capable of absolute pop gold ('Twisting', 'Birdhouse in Your Soul'), but then they're also capable of 'Particle Man'. The definition of a hit or miss band. |
Have you heard their first two? They may be more up your alley. They're much less in-your-face-weird and tbh quite a bit more consistent.

I've heard this one and Lincoln. Neither have convinced me that I need to check them out further, but maybe one day I'll take the plunge.

Their best album by a good margin, I liked Ana Ng but this was the one I bought first.
