This sucks. Everyone knows Fountains Of Wayne and That thing You Do, but he was also in IVY, who are also great.
Adam was a well known chain smoker, so that probably had something to with it.
He was a genius.
:(

Funny how the media does not mention that fact.

This one sucks a lot. Fountains of Wayne is a pretty important band to me, one of the first bands I really got into obsessively tracking down the whole back catalogue for, really helped me bond with my one-that-got-away back in high school. Ivy was a hell of a side project, too, very much FoW-meets-Stereolab. And then he did music for Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, too! Hell of a run. Still sucks.

I've seen a lot of his songs posted on social media over the last several days. A lot of "Radiation Vibe". This is probably a better tribute to him than any of his own songs:

Nice piece...except for the dying part.

I had no idea how prolific this guy was.

Makes you feel like a slouch.
