Only in the sense that they popularized the genre, but I find it hard to believe that they were in any sense the first college rock band.

Musically, The Feelies were doing everything R.E.M. did on Chronic Town two years prior. They had the jangly guitars, the pounding rhythm section, the mumbled vocals complemented by distant harmonies, and most of all, the devoted college student following. Not to mention that Radio Free Europe is basically a Feelies rip-off, even though it's a fantastic song.

It's a top notch album. Haven't listened to it in an age though.

Hell yea. It's kind of embarrassing to listen to in front of people (with lyrics like):
My hair is, real long
No brains, all groin
No shoes, just thongs
I hate, slow songs


But I like it.

That is a very good Kyuss album, but don't let ...And the Circus Leaves Town pass you by, the song "Phototropic" is worth the listen alone.
