I liken them to an American version of Squeeze ( who I also admire ), catchy tunes and clever lyrics." Hackensack", among many, is excellent.

Good call with the Squeeze comparison. Their most recent album I like, particularly "Cemetery Guns". How did we turn this into a "We like Fountains of Wayne" thread?
In a similar vein I love this track
Either the SR-71 original or the "Bowling For Soup" cover. Bizarrely I first came across it as a lively Richard Thompson acoustic cover!
