About Me

Home of the modifierS on my space....All the cool kids seem to be doing it. Rumors of our demise have been greatly exaggerated. We are a three piece indie-rock/tubescreaming pop band from Boston formed in the late 90’s. "Punk rock you can hum along with and pop that shakes you by the lapels," is how people have described our sound.....among other things.... We've played across the country, put out 2 CDs on Intelligent Records, had a song in the movie Massholes, had songs on MTV's Undressed, and currently appear in the indie movie Suicide City. We also appear on the American Laundromat Records' Compilation, High School Reunion available NOW. We recorded our version of Love My Way, by The Psychedelic Furs for the comp that also includes Matthew Sweet, Frank Black, Kristin Hersch, Lori McKenna and the Dresden Dolls. Go to http://www.americanlaundromatrecords.com/indexmain.php for more info.

In 2007 we recorded our version of Divine Hammer for another ALR release called Gigantic - A Tribute to Kim Deal. You can get the details here: http://www.myspace.com/kimdealtribute. It's due out on April 1 but you can pre-order it here: http://www.alr-music.com/shop.php.

And check this out. A couple of years ago we were in an indie movie called Suicide City. You can see us here in the trailer:
