I don't know anything about this band, so I thought I'd fake it by looking on Wikipedia. That's probably given it away, mind.
Anyway, this is a bloody great single, with a nice relaxing b-side. The a-side sounds a little like Elastica, but American with a boy singing. The b-side sounds like a quiet Foo Fighters track. Interestingly, Dave Grohl produced the LP after this one. Coincidence..? This one came out on Merge Records (everyone's favourite label), and was produced by Dave Fridmann of Mercury Rev/Flaming Lips/everyone else fame, so they have some pedigree in their production at least.
I think it's a really good song, very of its time (1997), but yeah, a good one. Hope you like it.

Here it is. You love it.
They were later signed to Capitol and released two albums, produced by their fan, Dave Grohl. They were from Alabama.
