One accordion-centric band named after a book from the 17th century has spent the past 30 years redefining cool.
Meet They Might Be Giants.
They're a staple weirdo band founded by John Linell and John Flansburgh, and they're kind of the best.
You might know them as the guys behind "Istanbul (Not Constantinople)."
Remember annoying the shit out of your parents by singing this song from Tiny Toons over and over?

As well as the shape-centric jam "Particle Man."
Also a Tiny Toons staple, and the perfect combination of inspired accordion interludes and perfectly '90s-esque flat, nasal vocals.
And of course you're familiar with the Malcolm in the Middle theme song, yes?
Also known as one of the best on TV? Yeah, that was TMBG, and they won two Grammys for it.
