Any of you remember "Possum Kingdom"?
It was the hit from the Toadies album, "Rubberneck" that featured the
band playing on an underground stage and some footage of a guy burying
a girl's body in a swamp.
The song was about the Goth kids running around Texas (the band's home state) and it was a huge hit.
I bought the album featuring the song and fell in love with them... And
I haven't heard anything since. No airplay... No coverage... No other
hits acknowleged by ripples of the mainstream.
While file-sharing tonight (Yeah I do that and fuck off if it bothers
you!) I was searching for songs off my long-lost Toadies tape (it took
me a LONG time to convert to CDs) and found some titles I didn't
recognize.
Sure enough... They have a site and a few other albums.

I'm going to pick up the other albums as soon as I can get them.
"Rubberneck" was one of my favorite listening experiences.
