[edit] Seperate Article for Backwater

I think Backwater is a big enough hit that it diserves its own article Savagepine 01:17, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sourcing Required?

Reading through the page, I found the paragraph detailing the band members' drug abuse to be a little on the edge of BLP. While it may or may not be true, should we maybe attribute that to a source inline to make sure we stay in line with policy?Cool moe dee 345 14:47, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

I have stumbled across a good article at the Austin Chronicle, that's basically recapturing most of the band's career. Regarding the drug addiction the article gives detailed descriptions (incl interview bits by Cris himself), from Cris shitting his pants due to his addiction to the death of his girlfriend and his other friend due to an OD. The link. Johnnyw talk 12:59, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Grunge?

Im not sure if these guys are grunge or not. Can anyone find some references on this? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.34.87.206 (talk) 05:38, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
