I usually like confessional lyrics with big guitars but I'm on the fence with these guys after multiple recommendations.

I like the first two albums quite a bit, and Aaron (RIP) was a great bass player. Caveats that when they reunited they asked my old band to play a bunch of shows with them and Sean ended up doing guest vocals on our last release, so I'm not totally impartial.

Never really need to hear "Flagpole Sitta" ever again, but I think they'd agree with that as well.
