Description
FARAQUET began as a side project featuring SMART WENT CRAZY members DEVIN OCAMPO and JEFF BOSWELL, along with Devin’s high school friend CHAD MOLTER. Faraquet stepped up as a full-time band after the demise of SWC and started playing more shows, releasing a couple of singles as well as appearing on a split CD with Akarso. Due to their non-traditional time signatures and off-kilter arrangements the band was often described as “math-rock”—a description they never warmed up to. Faraquet felt more aligned with the Minutemen and both the passion of their live performance and their advanced sense of melody set them well above and apart from the basement scientist crowd. The View from This Tower was recorded by J. ROBBINS and released in November of 2000. In 2003 core Faraquet members Devin and Chad reunited to form MEDICATIONS, who continue to release new music on Dischord Records. Remastered from the original tapes. LP includes a download.
