It's a good song, but I would hardly even put it in their top 10 tracks. Ok, maybe at the the bottom of it, but regardless I wouldn't EVER say that, at any point, it was a mainstream single. Yes, the ALT genre was making the turn to popular, but the pixes called it quit before the genre really got legs and had time to expose some of their best work. Trompe le Monde had just been released about 8 months prior to their demise and any single that was being played, was from this album. Either Head On, Palace of The Brine, the Sad Punk or the eminently wicked cover of the J&MC's Head On. I'm sure there was play for HCYM on college stations, but that's hardly considered mainstream. Great band. In my top 5 of all time for sure.
