I have been listening to CTD for quite a while and I was wondering who else likes thier music as I do.
I have found Dan's bass playing to be outstanding with tasteful fills and has an awesome tone.
In addition to having well thought out lyrics I find thier music amazing

I'm with you on that. I don't know the drummer's name but those two guys make a very tight rhythm section too.

Oh, great stuff, that! Great production, great tones... lyrically bizarre, but very clever...
"overacheiver" might be putting it mildly
