OBSCURE-A-THON. I loved TPC the first few times I saw them. Their debut was a little weak, but they've still got nice punch. I adore the Rentals because "Friends of P" was the better half of Weezer and "7 More Minutes" might be the greatest overlooked classic record of all time. The cover is a little weird, but if you like TPC and you're old enough to remember The Rentals, this should tickle your pickle.

Not half bad actually. I'm usually down on covers of songs I like, but this one worked out pretty well.

I'd forgotten about this song, but I definitely remember it... I remember it was on the radio all the time when I was playing Link to the Past.  Not a bad cover, TPC's an alright band.
Maybe I'll look into this 7 More Minutes album.
