Chisel - Your Star Is Killing Me

Ted Leo's band before the Pharmacists. Their very mod-inspired music isn't normally my cup of tea, and I'm not sure I'd be a fan of theirs if I'd only heard their records, but I saw a couple live gigs while visiting Washington DC in the mid-1990s and didn't they just bring the house down every time.

I bought their CDs on the strength of those performances. I admit I don't listen to them very often, but this (from their 1995 Nothing New collection) is really a great track. If you're into this sort of thing generally, I'm sure you'd like the rest of their music.
