Like the Ramones or early Weezer, the Nashville power-punk duo JEFF The Brotherhood is really good at being funny without writing gimmicky songs. And, while "Bummer" ostensibly comes off a breakup record, We Are the Champions, it functions in the same humorously harsh way as Weezer's Pinkerton. You really feel for these guys, but you still want to bum-rush the mic and sing along, especially during the fuzzy rager "Shredder." And, of course, the power-punk duo took off their shirts at the NPR Music offices, because why not?

Set List:

"Shredder"
"Diamond Way"
"Bummer"
"Bone Jam"

  • i want to know who made that guitar, and how many does he own

  • yeah...hipsters don't wear hipple cloaks and tanktops.

  • I wonder why he doesn't put the three strings in the middle so he doesn't have to reach as far.

  • theres nothing better than 10 pbrs before a long drive back to nashville.

  • he actually got a head made for the the 3 stringer! thats true dedication!
