Teenage Fanclub

Kind of a weird name, I'll admit it. I have to wonder; if they have a group that supports their music, and the group is made up of all adolescents, then is it called Teenage Teenage Fanclub Fanclub?

Okay, worst joke ever, I get it (still makes me laugh though). But their music is no laughing matter. If I had to describe their music in the simplest way possible... they're modern Big Star. They very similar to the Alex Chilton-fronted 70s-cult rock band, except... 90s-ish. The cool thing is that Teenage Fanclub has 3 singwriters/songwriters that all sing their own songs (Beatles cough cough). I can't really tell the difference between them yet, but I guess that'll come with time. But yeah, they're good. They never hit mainstream success (yet) but it's kinda hard to see why when some of their songs are so poppy and jangly. I guess it's better that way though. You get to be part of the minority. Good for you.
