That's what kept me from listening to them for years despite recommendations from trusted friends.
But the guy can write a melody.

Thomas from Pugwash was the other half of the Duckworth Lewis Method, which seems to be pretty reviled around here.

I'm a big power pop guy but have always found these guys boring.

Y'know, they are kind of boring, but they're comfortably boring. I like it.
I had a listen to The Duckworth Lewis Method out of curiosity. Yeah, horrible.

Never heard of these guys but I visited Pugwash, Nova Scotia in summer '80.
