They should put them in an aquarium. Or maybe a jellyfish sandwich. Yummy that would be good.

I just got in to them they are like the american XTC (minus the prolificness of course). Speaking of which i hope they eventually get in.

im not very familiar with this band, ive heard very good things, but i suspect they might earn a nomination soon because Rick Krim is a major fan of theirs

If you're reading this wondering who Jellyfish is, please do yourself a favor and listen to the entirety of Spilt Milk from beginning to end.

Many wrote the band off as being derivative but I think the songwriting and production sets the band apart.

Each member is a legend in their own right, and I hope someday a power pop resurgence or an excellent Netflix sync puts this band on the map for the current generation and those that ignored them back in the day.
