New album dropped from these guys a few months ago - ‘Back’, A homage to Back To The Future. Love some nerd rock.

    I only discovered them a couple of years ago when a track from III came up on my discovery queue. Weirdly, today was the first time I actually saw a video clip from them. The face did not match the voice that I had in my head.

      I did that with podcast hosts recently, their faces were not at all what my brain had conjured up.

      Pete looks a lot scruffier/grunge in earlier videos, but he’s a dad guy now and it’s been a couple decades.

      Still got some clear-as-a-bell pipes!

      If you like his voice, he does some interesting solo stuff with a different sound i think turned out really well, that’s probably my favorite track from the album “In Measured Hundredweight”.

      Did you have a specific image of him in your head? I’d love to hear what you saw in your mind’s eye initially.

        I think I just pictured someone younger and less Jack Black-like. I didn’t expect such, as you said, ‘clear as a bell pipes’ from someone looking about my age. I think he’s brilliant.
