History Edit

The band was formed in 2000[5] by former members of pre-existing Leeds punk rock bands.[6] In 2001, they released their debut self-titled album through Pigdog Records.[1] In 2002, they released their second album, titled Liebestod, which saw a departure from their prior sound into regular hardcore punk, because of this, members and fans sometimes refer to it as the "Hardcore EP".[6] In 2003, they released the EP Victory as a Drug through Jealous Records, which saw them return to their sound prior to Liebestod.[7] On 1 August 2003, they played Out Of Spite Festival at Josephs Well.[8] For the rest of August, they toured the U.K. for their final headline tour prior their breakup.[9] For Out of Spite festival 2007, they reformed a single performance.[10] In 2016, they reformed for the release of their discography compilation and a U.K. headline tour.[11][12]

Musical style and legacy Edit

The band have been categorised as emo[13][14][15] post-hardcore[16][17] and indie rock.[18] Their 2002 album Liebestod showed a style closer to that of '80s Washington D.C. hardcore punk.[13] Their music was influenced by Sunny Day Real Estate, Planes Mistaken for Stars,[6] Cave In, Braid,[11] Fugazi, Hot Water Music, Small Brown Bike, Les Savy Fav and At The Drive-In.[19] In an article for Brainwashed, Graeme Rowland described them as "Rites of Spring mixed up with a more melodic Drive Like Jehu parts".[9] They have influenced the sounds of ¡Forward, Russia!, This Et Al, The Lucida Console,[19] Crash of Rhinos[20] and Box Social.[21]
