What's left to say about one of the most popular US Indie-wave-shoegazer-bands of the 90's which has very prominent admirers like Interpol, Swervedriver and Coldplay but even so never had a real break through? At the beginning of the 90's FOR AGAINST was named at one go with bands like Pale Saints, The Sound or Echo & The Bunnymen and were even characterised as the American Ride or The Chameleons. But then it calmed down for the band and Jeffrey Runnings who finally reunited 6 years ago and now have released a fantastic, new and much anticipated album which they present on their European tour with only four (!) concerts in Germany. Everyone who likes Joy Divison and Interpol will love FOR AGAINST!
