I've been having a dynamite time today listening the The Modern Lovers self-titled debut album from 1976. It's magic. My intro to these guys was a bit roundabout. There's a great track on the Repo Man sountrack called "Pablo Picasso," performed by a band called The Burning Sensations. Which is a great band name. Seriously. It's an oddball song, and I didn't realize that it was a cover until TODAY when I started listening to the Modern Lovers album.
I think this album sounds like a cross between The Replacements and Cake. Only, since it came out in 1976, it's more like this album had babies, and those babies were The Replacements and Cake.
Oh just listen to it.
