I got to see them at Pointfest 2 in St. Louis (Aug. 20, 1994). We were sitting in the lawn at Riverport and at some point during Material Issue a trash war broke out. Trash was flying through the sky everywhere you looked. All the while Material Issue is kicking ass on stage. It was incredible.

I only just discovered them, great band! If you like Big Star and/or Teenage Fanclub, you should definitely check them out.

Material Issue were like Cheap Trick's younger cousin. These guys were just way good. When a band is this genius... you know they are more than likely going to crash and burn. Jim Ellison - R.I.P.

My biggest, baddest influence as a singer/songwriter/guitarist - long live the KING!

Totally underrated... especially Freak City Soundtrack - yes, the band was imploding at that point, but its a great record

Yeah, these guys are due for a re-evaluation. The power-pop underground still seems to love them (and the big annual power-pop festival is even CALLED International Pop Overthrow) but everyone else forgot. They should at least put out a best-of or something, since their whole catalog is pretty tough to find.
