Musical style
The band's 1992 debut album Bruiser "explored the more easy-listening cocktail-lounge side of guitar-pop," according to Kembrew McLeod of AllMusic. The group's second album Teenbeat 96 has been described as more experimental, and leaning towards a lounge pop sound.
Legacy
According to Kembrew McLeod of AllMusic, "Eggs was one of Washington, D.C.'s best indie-pop bands of the early 1990s, but were often lost in the shadows of their labelmates Unrest."
