The Toadies' 1993 EP "Pleather" is a fine helping of the early pre-Rubberneck sounds for those who can't find copies of their early EPs like Velvet and Slaphead. All the tunes on here rock hard. They are all very stripped down and raw sounding. Let's face it, The Toadies can't ever put out a bad record and even though its been six years since they put out an LP, this is fine stuff.

I have both Rubberneck and Pleather. Rubberneck is better but Pleather has some awsome versions of the Toadies BEST songs. All the songs on here are demos so the Toadies sound heavier then the cd version of the Toadies. You MUST buy This cd please

All great songs by the Toadies with a live feel through the whole cd (especially the instrumental "I burn" all the way at the end). Great for any long time fan. And if You're just looking. BUY THIS CD, NOW!

This cd is great! Especially if you're a fan of the toadies. There's not much of their stuff out there so this is a nice addition to anyone's collection. It also has a hidden track but it's mostly instramental, well besides the intro to it.

This is The Toadies at their most raw and thier best. This is the EP that was released prior to the smash-hit "Rubberneck." Each song is great, with excellent lyrics by lead singer Todd Lewis. The fact that this band is not together anymore is a compltete travesty. Our only hope is that someone at their record company will have a revelation and realize to put out a live Toadies CD. Until then, we are left with three great discs. If you do not have this CD, buy it, but be ready for a much more punk feeling than you get from "Rubberneck."

I own both pleather and rubberneck, and pleather is my favorite out of the two. Why u ask, because this is much heavier. And it's really hard to find at any down town music dealer store. THIS CD RULES!!!!!

I can only say in a time when we yearn for real music (2001) Toadies will always be there to supply it. So until G'N'R returns this summer this will continue to help you over all this prefab music out now.

This is the best cd I think I have ever gotten. All of the songs on it are great!

I was not familiar with the Toadies other than hearing the song Possum Kingdom on the radio. I bought the CD based on that. Possum Kingdom is an excellent song, but I found the others to be less enjoyable. I bought the CD used, so I don't consider it a wasted investment. Still, be cautioned if you are only familiar with the one song. You may want to listen to clips of the others before buying.

Possum Kingdom was what I was after...it's by far the Toadies coolest tune. I listened to the others available and was not impressed. No wonder they never got any more publicity (or sales) ....only my humble opinion....
