The Posies & Brendan Benson

Some really like the Posies signature album, Frosting on the Beater. Personally, I couldn't get it to stick after several listens, but I didn't grow up listening to it either.

You know that Brendan Benson guy, right? He is the lead singer of the Raconteurs! Well, the other lead singer. If he and Alison Mosshart fought for Jack White's approval, who would win? Currently, Alison in a land slide.
