not everything they did was crap, but most of their popular stuff was.

I knew people whose taste I respect that were in to them well before they were "big," so I have to assume you are right. What are some tracks of theirs you dig?

some personal favourites:

Old Apartment

Call and Answer

Lovers In a Dangerous TIme, a Bruce Cockburn cover which is frankly superior to the original

What a Good Boy

I don't think these will necessarily change your mind, but they will hopefully show you they were more than just a one-trick pony.

Bonus - Another Canadian band known for funny songs exercising their serious side.
