Theres a picture opposite me of my primitive ancestry

Which stood on rocky shores and kept the beaches shipwreck free

Currently, the members of TMBG are Flansburgh, Linnell, Marty Beller, Dan Miller, and Danny Weinkauf. They are best known for an unconventional and experimental style of alternative music.
