Renowned for their intricate guitar-driven soundscapes, raw and emotional vocals, and complex percussion, they brought an unforgettable energy to their live performances. Named after a local shop owner in their hometown of State College, PA, the band’s songwriting served as a crucial link between math rock, “first-wave” emo, and the melodic, vibrant energy of the late-90s midwest emo wave. Their consistent summer touring took them across the country, including a legendary 1997 run with Braid and The Get Up Kids. Their final show took place in 1998 alongside At The Drive-In and Lazarus Plot at Chicago’s iconic Fireside Bowl.The band debuted with a highly sought-after four-song cassette demo in 1995. In 1996, they followed with the “Pierman”/“Paladin Taim” 7-inch (Tree Records) and the Tamsen/Onward Foster 7-inch (Caulfield Records) before working again with Tree for their 1997 full-length debut, “The Milton Abandonment”. They also appeared on numerous compilation albums. Their sophomore release, Spelling the Names, was released by Tree in 2000. New York Magazine's listed their track "Waltz of Gibraltar" among the 100 most influential emo songs of all time, further cementing the band’s legacy in the genre's history.In 2025 the band announced that they had reunited with Tree Records founder Ken Shipley as part of his Numero Group label, which re-issued their demo as a 2×7-inch and included their song “Calba’s Last” as part of a bonus 7-inch in their Grammy-nominated release.The band reunited for live shows in 2026, including a sold-out tour of Japan with Numero labelmates Jejune and the Album Leaf.
