onethousand

A pop-punk drummer, a indie-rock songwriter and a garage-rock guitarist walk into a bar on craigslist...1000 is the punchline.

The following account is completely factual:

1000 was immaculately conceived in the virgin womb of craigslist on St. Patrick's Day, 2007. Jeff Liggett, Chad Collmann, and Chad Winkler collectively decided that their late 80's post-punk influences were a little too fun to forget, like wearing a Halloween costume for a few days after Halloween. They immediately started whipping-up some good old-fashioned chemistry in garages, basements, and studios, before settling into a storage unit that became their Mesopotamia, their "Fertile Crescent". They settled down and raised a family of songs educated in local bars. Several songs were wiped-out in a Thinking Fellers Union plague of 2008, but the band recovered to breed stronger songs that would become the first full-length album, "Extinction Will Have All of the Momentum", titled in honor of the songs that died so the album could live free.
