Never judge a book by its cover. Fair enough. Never judge a band by their name. Also fair. Just ask Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin. The band's Beach Boys meets Nada Surf approach is an undeniably good formula.

Springfield Missouri's power-pop quartet stopped by the Interface, to unplug for a special performance. Springfield might not be a hotbed for rock, but don't be too quick to assume. "Brad Pitt is also from Springfield," guitarist Will Knauer tells Spinner. "Johnathan James, my friend and our bassist, went to the same high school as him, and this lady that used to babysit me used to babysit Brad Pitt." Knauer also reveals the origin of the band's name and more after the jump.
