Two-Hit Wonders: Presidents of the United States of America

Posted by Spinner

'Lump' (No. 21, 1995)
'Peaches' (No. 29, 1996)

In 1995, America's youth was unexpectedly captivated by a bald dude stomping around a swamp in a suit. The Presidents' psychotically catchy, utterly weird 'Lump' came out of nowhere to dominate the alternative nation. The equally quirky 'Peaches' followed later that year, before the band stomped back into the swamp, never to reach the Top 40 again.
