I love how "Friends of P" was so deadpan and static, and then the Rentals followed it up with a video that's in constant motion. Guys falling through the ceiling, car chases, bike tricks, and an effin' helicopter. Amazing. These guys should've been huge.

Some random trivia: Matt started The Rentals mainly because he wanted a project where he could work with Rachel & Petra from That Dog. In the early day of both bands, Weezer proclaimed That Dog to be their favorite band. Yes, that’s Maya on keyboards here. Before this gig, she was the original That Dog drummer (before they ever recorded anything). The friendships and intertwining lives and careers of the members of Weezer / The Rentals / That Dog go back to their high school days.

The woman doing the countdown -- that is Rachel Haden, the identical sister of violist-singer Petra Haden (Tanya was the other one--hence triplet sisters). Rachel was with The Rentals as a bass player and singer twice in her career. She was an original member but left the group shortly before the band's first CD was released, followed by Petra soon afterward.

I think that both of them contributed essential parts to the band. The best material Weezer ever released was on those two albums and though Matt might not have penned most of the albums output he put an unmistakable stamp on their sound. I think The Rentals and Weezer (give or take) are solid by themselves but they were certainly better together. However, I personally think The Rentals have more songs that are open to a lot of repeated listens. That's just me, though.

Matt should have stayed with Weezer though as well as held the rentals down.
