One of the babies of the crushing rage-against-the-machine vibe in the mid-90's. Lots of guitar riffs, social subject matter, sealing the deal with the chorus.

Details:
Their second album, Bitter Taste of Americana (1994), was released to critical aclaim and garnered them interest from multiple major and indie labels. The band's sound had moved a bit away from the funk side, more toward a rock-rap sound with some straight-ahead rock tunes thrown in for good measure.

Local radio was paying attention too, and Carla Leonardo (then the local music programmer at WKQX-Q101 in Chicago) put the band on two Q101 compliations. "Senseless" and "Self-Healing" got significant radio play in the region at least partially due to their respective appearances on Random Acts Vols. I and II.
