I discovered The Modern Lovers just recently. They sound so fresh I really thought they came out in the 2000's following The Strokes and other post-punk rockers. It's a mystery why they were never considered in the HOF.

Super influential however these guys are one album wonders. I mean, the Sex Pistols got in on one album so who knows (the Sex Pistols also covered roadrunner) so that'll say something .
