This Bay Area band has been performing together since the mid-1990s, when they were known as the more punk-driven American Steel. That group continued up until 2002, when songwriter Rory Henderson began working on more pop-oriented material, with bits of synth added in for a touch of New Wave flash. The group recorded these new songs as Communique and released their first EP, A Crescent Honeymoon, in 2003. Their first full-length, Poison Arrows, followed in 2004.
