Been around forever but you really don't hear anything about them. I really like em. Good music to just chill while listening.

While listening, as opposed to NOT listening ? :)

Parting of the Sensory is my favorite song by them.
Who the hell made you the boss?
We placed our chips in all the right spots but still lost
Any shithead who had ever walked
Could take this ship and do a much finer job
This fit like clothes made out of wasps
Oh, fuck it, I guess I lost
Awesome lyrics.

Another part I like about the song is:
Some day you will die and someone or something will steal your carbon
Some day something will die and somehow you'll figure out how often
You will die somehow and something's going to steal your carbon
Something will die and you will probably just steal its carbon
Some day you will die somehow and something's going to steal your carbon

That video for King Rat off of No One's First, And You're Next was directed by Heath Ledger shortly before he died.

Ok Fab, I had never heard of them so I listened to a couple of their songs. Now I know what ya mean when you said "Good music to just chill while listening." (with listening = Smoking...well special smokin')

What songs did you give a try?

I'm guessing from your reaction maybe "Float On".

Great bad. I've seen them in concert 4 times. I recommend seeing them live if you get the chance.

I'm a big fan. There's not really anyone else like them right now. It's a good sound.

Saw them in concert a few years ago.

Lead singer said "get the fuck off the stage" to some dude. I loved it.

I'm a big fan of them.
If you've only heard their more recent stuff, you need to check out their second album "Lonesome Crowded West". It's not only their best album, it's one of the best albums of the 90's...
