We gave our Patreon subscribers four album options that were released in October 1996, and they decided we should revisit the self-titled debut by Fountains of Wayne. All the hallmarks of power pop are present - tight songwriting, big vocal hooks with guitar riffs to match, and the occasional harmony to sweeten the sound - from the band that would go on to write the massive single “Stacy’s Mom.”

Songs in this Episode:

Intro - Radiation Vibe
4:04 - History of the Band
12:36 - Leave The Biker
18:11 - She’s Got A Problem
27:51 - Radiation Vibe
