The Rentals - Stupid Girl (early That's Incredible! demo)

The Rentals - Stupid Girl (early That's Incredible! demo) *Audio*

That's Incredible! was the name of the very first incarnation of The Rentals, the moog synthesizer-based Modern Rock band led by former Weezer bassist Matt Sharp. Recorded by Tom Grimley at his studio Poop Alley in L.A. in April 1994 (a month prior to the first Weezer album hitting stores), the 'That's Incredible!' demos form the basis of what would become the first Rentals album 'Return Of The Rentals' in 1995.

The line-up of 'That's Incredible!' consisted of Sharp (vocals, bass and lead guitar), Weezer bandmate Patrick Wilson (drums), That Dog's Rachel Haden (female vocals) and Supersport 2000's Rod Cervera (rhythm guitar). Out of this line-up, only Sharp and Cervera would become part of The Rentals, as other commitments prevented Haden and Wilson from becoming full-time participants in what would become a more time-consuming project for Sharp once signed to Maverick Records in early 1995.

Fun fact: "Stupid Girl" would later become "Brilliant Boy", a song on the Rentals debut album "Return Of The Rentals" (Maverick Records, 1995).
