      It's unfortunate it was really his only hit cause he's actually a really good singer. His control over the higher registers in his voice is impressive as fuck.

      ​@@Southboundpachyderm my band had the absolute pleasure of opening for them many years ago in Pittsburgh. Brendan is an incredible dude, and they are all so talented. I only knew teenage dirtbag before that, but their performance blew me away and I immediately became a fan. If you want more to check out, my favorite song of theirs is "the story of the eggs" the album version. Hands down the highlight of my musical career.
