The Faint DJ Set
Do you remember a time when the synthesized sounds of the ’80s were a
regular part of the modern musical landscape? The members of The Faint do,
because they were there when it started to happen. In fact, you could even
say they’re one of the main reasons it happened at all.
The Faint, founded in Omaha in the mid-‘90s, have always created against
the grain, disinterested in making anything except what their own inspiration
drives them to make. Each album since their 1998 debut Media has shifted
and evolved that desire. Some albums, like 1999’s Blank-Wave Arcade, came
from urgent, short recording processes, while others, like 2004’s Wet From
Birth, were more carefully constructed. For 2001’s Danse Macabre, they set
their sights a bit further afield, attempting to conjure the energy of bumping
Berlin dance floors from nearly 5,000 miles away in eastern Nebraska. The
musicians themselves are the constant, together embracing a style that is
truly unlike every other band out there.
