I still listen to this album from time to time. I first heard about them when they were featured in a CD magazine, i.e. a magazine you'd buy at the newsstand but that just consisted of the CD in a box. All the rage in the mid nineties. I had just bought my first CD-ROM drive so this was extra cool. Really loved the song so I bought the album.

newsstand ... cd-rom

Oh wow, the nostalgia is strong, eh.

They were still performing around as of about 10 years ago.
