Any fans? I first heard these guys while in Korea. Over there, the US military have a radio station. It just broadcasts to all the military stations. Anyway, I kept hearing this killer song being played, but they'd never say who it was—mainly because there weren't many DJs. The song was about Superman, as far as I knew. Haha. That song turned out to be "Kryptonite."
Great song! I love that riff during the chorus.
I know they're modern rock, but I personally think they're one of the best. Yeah, nothing original, but these guys write some great songs! I just saw that they have a new album coming out on May 20.
New video. Really good tune.

i dont mind these guys at all. They do write some great radio tunes. Wish they had more solos though.

Not bad. They get a little "samey" but I have several of their discs.

I don't know any of their stuff other than the radio hits but I always did like "Kryptonite." The video with all the crazy old guys dressed up in superhero costumes is hilarious in a disturbing sort of way.

My son was really into these guys for a while. Drove me nuts with that stinkin' Superman song and that "I'm a loser" song.

"Superman", along with Eminem's "Real Slim Shady" and Smash Mouth's "All Star" were FREAKIN' HUGE when I finished grade 7 (June 2000). Those songs were all you heard on tv music stations and the radio. The music video for Superman is pretty funny, though.

They have some solid radio tunes, but nothing I've ever wanted to own.

I have their first three cds. I really only love the first one though. The other two are alright. Can't tell you though when it was I last pulled them out and gave them a listen. Peace.

You're all pansy merry men.
I like Kryptonite. It's a great tune. They have a talent for catchiness.

Their hits are solid radio hits but pretty much sound the same. I give them credit but they are nothing I would want to own.
