The first album by notable lo-fi indy rock band The Olivia Tremor Control, Dusk at Cubist Castle, laid the groundwork for the remarkable stream of music that came from the Elephant 6 Recording Company in the mid to late 90's. Elephant 6 was a Georgia based recording collective of friends who formed bands such as: Neutral Milk Hotel, The Apples in Stereo, Circulatory System, and Of Montreal. Olivia Tremor Control officially disbanded in 2000, yet played a string of concerts in 2005 and 2008. Let's hope they get back together soon.
