En Garde (album)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
En Garde is the debut album of indie-rock band, Criteria. Formed by one of the founding members of Cursive, Steve Pedersen came back to his hometown of Omaha, Nebraska after graduating from Duke University. He recruited the help of old friends, Aaron Druery, A.J. Mogis, and Mike Sweeney. Originally released by Initial Records, it was the one of the most slept-on albums of 2003. It was re-released in 2005 when the band moved to Saddle Creek Records.
This album is the 80th release of Saddle Creek Records.
