I still listen to this album from time to time. I first heard about them when they were featured in a CD magazine, i.e. a magazine you'd buy at the newsstand but that just consisted of the CD in a box. All the rage in the mid nineties. I had just bought my first CD-ROM drive so this was extra cool. Really loved the song so I bought the album.
Cool! I only know these guys for making the opening for the "Quick Questions" podcast, which I already thought was way more incredible than a podcast into song has a right to be. Now I really need to look into more of their stuff.
I had never really listened to Nada Surf before. Seems like they really took the ball from Slint and ran with it. And then threw in a few dashes of radio alt chorus for plausible deniability. But then took another few dashes of suicidal tendencies to round out the sound.
Didn't notice the date in the title, but could instantly tell it was from the late 70's/early 80s with that unique sound recordings had back then. Good stuff.
