that dog were the smartest, sweetest noise in '90s Los Angeles, a band where sugar-coated harmonies scraped up against buzzing guitars and a violin that refused to behave. Anna Waronker sang lead and played guitar, Rachel Haden played bass and sang, her sister Petra Haden played violin and sang, and Tony Maxwell drummed, and the three voices tangling together were the whole point.
Critics heard echoes of Redd Kross, Wednesday Week, Dolly Mixture and Buzzcocks, and on DGC they made records that sound like teenage crushes written down in a diary and then set on fire. Totally Crushed Out!, from 1995, delivered "One Summer Night", a starry-eyed rush of a song, and Retreat From the Sun brought "Never Say Never" in 1997, the same year the band broke up. They got back together in 2011.
