Camper Van Beethoven

Been raiding their discography a bit much lately.

Mid to late eighties indie rock, very accessible and they've got some awesome works under their belt. Split up before anyone could give a shit about them but they still managed to create a few good albums. Incorporate a lot of different sounds into their material, ranging from ska to to punk to country and a violin in between. Sounds like a crossover of Robyn Hitchcock and the Feelies.

I recommend:

Telephone Free Landslide Victory (1985)
Our Beloved Revolutionary Sweetheart (1988)
Key Lime Pie (1989)

Let me know if anyone wants any further information.
