It's true. All the best bands come from my city, Chicago. And in this case, all the bands that want to achieve great excellence move to Chicago. I don't have to tell you, the freakin' title says it all!
This band originated in St. Louis sometime in 95' then moved to Chicago and recorded a single shortly-there-after, which was released on a 7". They quickly got signed to Temporary Residence and released the "1975..." EP. All albums followed in completely different footsteps.
If you happened to see Explosions In The Sky last year, you probably saw their opening act, Lichens. That was Rob Lowe. Not the Rob Lowe, but the member who really helped this band out.
Their earlier material is completely different from their later. If you have not listened to this band, I would seriously recommend downloading everything I made available for you. If you have, I hope there are some files here that you have not been able to find previously.
Don't ask what they sound like. All their albums are different. You can put their earlier stuff with Slint, Don Cab, and Rodan and their later with Anathallo and your fucking mother for asking so many questions.
