Kaddisfly is an experimental indie rock band hailing from Portland, Oregon; they are currently on hiatus. An unconventional juxtaposition of progressive sensibility and pop harmonies, laced with the airy, sweet vocals of Chris Ruff, the band has been an impressive force ever since the 2001 release of the Honorable Mention EP.

The following year, they released the Humania EP, another strong effort, giving nods to bands like Incubus and Lostprophets.

In 2003, Kaddisfly released their first full-length, entitled, “Did You Know People Can Fly?”. DYKPCF? was an impressive mix of songs that helped propel the band to tour nearly year round. DYKPCF? was followed by their critically acclaimed and verbacious 2005 release, “Buy Our Intention; We’ll buy you a Unicorn”. Released on Hopeless Records, the band’s first release with their new label, Kaddisfly grew in popularity with their single/video for “New Moon Over Swift Water”. The band continued to tour nonstop at venues throughout the country.

The Four Seasons EP was released online and at shows on September 12th, 2006. It included four songs off their upcoming release, “Set Sail the Prairie” (March 6th, 2007) and one b-side titled, “Games”. The EP was given great reviews and made fans and newcomers excited about their upcoming full-length release.

@rella987, "Flowers" is a bside track that is actually really sludgy.. it used to be on their myspace but i don't know if it still is or not.

Did he really just call this band screamo/skaterock? I like how none of the genres he listed have nothing affiliated with this band. The voice is fine

nice guitar sound. finally emo-screamo-skaterock-whatsoeverrock-Bands are discovering they´re TONE. way better sound as some liketobe-metal sounds which all real metalbands on the planet could easily top ;-) Fine songs will see to get some more music, but the voice is partly anoying... regards
