For example, I first heard Suburban Legends - Polyester, so I went to check Suburban Legends and they were just a regular ska band.
What’s your “that song was great, I wish the band did more of that” song and band?

IIRC Song 2 was supposed to be a parody of how simple radio friendly rock music had become, then became their biggest hit.
Wasn’t Smells Like Teen Spirit also kinda like that? They have similar places in my head and I think I remember something about Cobain hating how popular that song got.
But Nirvana’s other songs were similar enough that that one didn’t come to my mind for the main question. Blur is like a different band from the one that did Song 2.
I think with Smells Like Teen Spirit is Kurt always felt that like he didn’t deserve as much praise because he considered the song to be a Pixies rip-off. It wasn’t done to poke fun at the Pixies but out of his love for them.
