You know, when I was watching a bunch of MM videos to figure out which one was the song that's been stuck in my head for the last two days, I really saw how good these guys are. I don't listen to much guitar pop -- hardly any actually, but I may have to get a bunch of MM. Everything I came across was good. I don't know what it is about their songs -- his voice, or the simplicity, the interesting cadences, or the elaborate lyrics -- but they're really catching my fancy this morning.
Here's the one that's been haunting me lately.
Enjoy identifying which of the ghosts that have been prying on your brain,
Bp

The Moon and Antarctica is an album that was in my head for years...
Dennis Herring deserves some recognition as a great producer. I'm not discounting the lyrics or instrumentation, but I feel strongly that producers should be on the album cover (or sleeve insert at the very least) just like the musicians themselves. This is a good case in point.
Love these guys. But I gotta say their live show bites. But they write the songs that stick with me.
Check out there older stuff for sure. Ethan's suggestion is a good one.
I've seen these guys a couple of times, 4 I think, and there have the most varied quality performance of almost any band I've seen. Once they were great one of the 10 best shows I've seen, the other time I left halfway through because it was so bad. So yeah skipping them live might be best.
