[edit] Real Funny

Indian Summer are quite far from being called the best band ever.


[edit] Michigan, Hello?

These guys were originally from Michigan and moved out to California before their quits. A lot of us in the Midwest take a deal of pride in bands like this, Cap'N Jazz, and Boy's Life for their influence on indie music throughout the nineties. Whereas some may argue a title of "best band ever", it should be stressed how progressive and influential they were for thousands of musicians over the last fifteen years. Seriously.

Can we get a source on that? A zine, a website, anything? Not just for proof of that, I want to find out as much as I can about this band - it's so bizarre how there's pretty much nothing on the internet about them, and it makes me even more fascinated/amazed by them. 129.2.235.113 23:57, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

I ordered the summer 1994 discography in 2005 from someone on ebay who claimed in the item description to be the former drummer. The album was shipped from Hawaii and the seller claimed a mere 1000 copies existed. I had no idea it was a new release at the time, I just snapped it up. Also, I am pretty sure they were originally from Michigan and relocated to Oakland in '91.

Indian summer is an amazingly good emo/screamo band and is very important to the history of the music especially in the 90s. Indian summer has more than 82000 plays on last.fm, more than many bands which have wikipedia articles. http://www.last.fm/music/Indian+Summer

It doesn't matter, the band meets none of the criteria for music pages.Hoponpop69 01:55, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

"Has established a tradition or school in a particular genre." Indian Summer's influence is widely apparent in several bands who are also notable: City Of Caterpillar, Daitro, Suffocate For Fuck Sake, and Envy, for instance. I'd say that it certainly does meet that criteria. noohgodno 12:30, 17 March 2007 (EST)
