Since its inception in 1992, Built to Spill founder Doug Martsch intended his beloved band to be a collaborative project, an ever-evolving group of incredible musicians making music and playing live together. I wanted to switch the lineup for many reasons. Each time we finish a record I want the next one to sound totally different. Its fun to play with people who bring in new styles and ideas, says Martsch. And its nice to be in a band with people who arent sick of me yet.
Following several albums and EPs on Pacific Northwest independent labels, including the unmistakably canonical indie rock classic, Theres Nothing Wrong With Love, released on Sub Pop offshoot Up Records in 1994, Martsch signed with Warner Brothers from 1995 to 2016. He and his rotating cast of cohorts recorded six more, inarguably great albums during that time Perfect From Now On, Keep It Like a Secret, Ancient Melodies of the Future, You In Reverse, Untethered Moon, There Is No Enemy. There was also a live album, and a solo record, Now You Know. While the bands impeccable recorded catalog is the entry point, Built to Spill live is an essential FORCE of its own: heavy, psychedelic, melodic and visceral tunes blaring from amps that sound as if theyre powered by Mack trucks.
