I completely get the Steely Dan elements you're hearing in OAFB, though it is of course not the same. In addition to the other elements you mention, I'm hearing some Zebra and other bands of that ilk. I feel like other bands mining similar '70s territory include Black Mountain and Tame Impala, but OAFB seems to have more sophistication. Not exactly Dan, but I still like it a lot, and you're not crazy.

Yeah, OAFB are kind of a PuPu Platter of influences. I have one Black Mountain album, but I should probably revisit them. I love Tame Impala, but I'm hoping they veer away from their current AM Gold trajectory back towards rock.
