Artist History
After four years, two full length studio albums, a live album and over three hundred thousand miles on the road, Puller has released their most powerful piece of work yet.. "What's Mine at Twilight" Mike Lewis and Geoff Riley formed Puller in the spring of 1996 after the split of Lewis' former band For Love Not Lisa. Tooth and Nail Records offered Puller a contract that summer, at which time they released "Sugarless", a complicated and viseral offering of textured melodies and rhythms. After touring with such artists as MXPX, Swervedriver, and even Metalhead Bruce Dickenson, Puller released "Closer than you Think" early 98. "Closer-" was a long hard look at failed relationships, and was laid out like a fresh kill over sonic soundscapes. " What's Mine at Twilight" reveals a newly centered vision for Puller. At times sharp and urgent, often thoughtfull and melodic, Puller has taken their surgent songs to a new level. |
