The first thing I can say about Hum is that they were well ahead of the time they needed to be in, were probably too good to last and with only one "hit" under their belt, it's just a damned shame not enough people listened to them. This is serious one of my all-time favorite bands. Most who have heard them have the "devo-itis" (like that? I just made it up) where they only attribute one song to the band, however, like Devo, Hum has many good and better songs than just the one you've heard.
ANYWAY...if you haven't gotten it by now, yes, this band is amazing and you must go out immediately and gather their entire discography and listen to it non-stop until you know all the words and riffs.
That being said, here's one of my favorite tracks:
