I saw a documentary that rivaled them against the Dandy Warhols. I know little of them other than that. The documentary showed them just as much a tragedy as anything. They were frequently haggled at shows as if it's the thing to do... especially their front-man. I can't say I don't understand why.... their frontman is comprised of a lethal concoction of ridiculously arrogant with a heavy mix of self destructive. I'm impressed if he hasn't off'd himself yet.
I give them props for their heavy commitment to the "tambourine"
a friend in Mass. recorded a song I said I really liked... he said it was a BJTM cover.... so, I must like them. The first song on this set of recordings in a BJTM cover (you might like it):

If you like it, I've got a quality MP3 that's not slowed down like that one. I like the slowed down one, it kinda makes it sound like ween or something, but his reg. speed version sounds good too.
