    I just started listening to them a couple weeks ago and already bought their album. Easily one of my favorite bands I've heard in the last couple years.

    I've waited for years that combined the punk-meets-classic rock of Pearl Jam and references Tom Petty and Bruce Springsteen while covering Tom Petty and Pearl Jam (and often citing Neil Young). It's like...my dream.

    Even Cowgirls Get The Blues and Miles Davis & the Cool are my two favorite songs so far.

    Their performance with Bruce at Glastonury and Hard Rock Calling were also pretty damn good.

    I have the 59 Sound and absolutely love it. I picked it up a few weeks ago onsale at Best Buy based on a few friends' recommendations and it's awesome. I need to get their other albums now.

    I haven't listened to much of their stuff but no one I like is playing at the same time as them at APW so I'll check them out this weekend.

    Saw them a couple of months ago and am seeing them again in September. Great band live; they have amazing energy that makes everyone feel energized. Would be awesome if they played SOLAT at more shows!!!
