2. The Users

Slaving for the Heartless

The latest in a prestigious line of Saratoga popsters, the Users incorporate such old-school mod-rock influences as early Kinks and the Who with more recent pop flavors such as the Lemonheads and Weezer. These songs are catchy but not overly simple, smart but not precious. This is radio-ready pop music harking back to a time when that phrase didn’t connote “crap.”
