Love is Chemicals formed in 2001 when singer / guitarist
Nate Grover, tired of playing in bands that kept breaking up, convinced
his wife Courtney to learn to play bass. Soon joined by drummer
Dan Baber and guitarist Nick Mirov (who answered a Craigslist ad),
the band quickly bonded over a shared love of guitar-heavy '90s
indie-rock such as Pavement, Built to Spill, and Sonic Youth. Their
2005 self-titled debut album found them shedding their more overt
influences while retaining a similar scruffy, slightly spacey, noisey-but-still-heavily-melodic
vibe.
With their Three Ring release 'Song of the Summer Youth Brigade',
Love is Chemicals continues to extend and broaden their sound, marrying
knotty, meandering guitars and shoegazer atmospherics to a songwriting
sensibility informed equally by bright, tuneful West Coast indie
and moody Brit-pop. With invaluable assistance from producer Christian
Hanlon, the band has fashioned an album that is anthemic without
being bombastic, dreamy without being lightweight, wistful without
being twee, and noisy without being abrasive.
