Artist History As the glory days of Minneapolis rock were covered in clouds, having in recent years been forced to endure the breakups of bands like Husker Du and the Replacements, four simple- and like-minded guys sought to become the town's next big thing. Lacking any real originality or talent, hoewever, they never got past the mediocre milestone of Wednesday night headliner in any local clubs. The band decided to hang it up for good in 1999 despite never having scraped together enough money to release the record they'd worked on intermittently for four years. As the masters gathered dust, the band's desire to release a record did not: monthly, each member contributed what he could afford until their account boasted the record's pressing costs. When it became available, their record 'Oilwaterchalkcheese' was roundly deemed not worth the wait by local rock scribes. None of the four are currently involved in a musical project.
