Sam (drums), Pete (vocals, guitar) and Joe (bass) Loeffler. They started out playing parties and outdoor events, which quickly led to bookings at Chicago clubs when youngest member Joe was just 14. In 1999, the band released their Steve Albini-produced debut album, Point #1, on Squint Entertainment. Three years later, the band inked a deal with Epic and issued Wonder What's Next. In June, the album went platinum and their second single "Send the Pain Below" was a number one hit at modern rock and mainstream radio. Main stage dates with the annual Ozzfest tour followed that summer, and 2003 brought a concert album, Live from the Road. This Type of Thinking (Could Do Us In) followed in 2004. |
