This is a band I've somehow overlooked all these years. They sound like a darker, more depressed R.E.M. Very cool.

[@ArzHole]

Haha, I've always described MDID as "like R.E.M. if they were actually good".

real 80s! real indie! real music! my youth!

[@ArzHole]

One of my favourite bands, that unfortunately no one else has ever heard of.

You’re not alone mate…

[@Censorshipsucks]

Saw them open for the Pixies in 1990 at the Orpheum in Boston

[@tommeares3403]

Everything instrumentally is unexpected about this song, initially -- it just transfixes you. Great music.

[@vaspers]

One heck of a great sound. Intelligent lyrics. Sorry I missed seeing this band in NYC around 1989. Also see "The Big Picture" and "Hill of Beans".

[@andrewcounts7136]

And “crazy World”.....👌

[@Vahlriens]

Still timeless

[@andrewcounts7136]

An Un-Championed Band…🙌👌🙌

No puedo creer que esta banda no sea mas grande el mundo es una mierda

[@KattAD]

this has the style and energy of nirvana.

[@cooperslyking]

I agree sooooo much!

[@vaspers]

Way, way, way better than the emo grunge of Nirvana.

[@matiasmelow9517]
