Kansas City MO, United States

There are three bands with the name Shiner:

1) Shiner were a band from Kansas City.
2) Shiner were a / band from Canada.
3) Shiner are a band from Aberdeen, Scotland.

1) Shiner was a band from Kansas City formed in 1992. The group originally comprised of Allen Epley (guitar/ vocals), Jeff Brown (drums) and Shawn Sherrill (bass), before Tim Dow took over on the skins a year later. With this line up, the band found themselves sharing the stage with Season to Risk, Sunny Day Real Estate, The Jesus Lizard, Girls Against Boys and Jawbox among others before DeSoto Records released their debut EP “Brooks” b/w “Released” 7” in 1993.

Following Shiner’s first album Splay also put out by DeSoto, Paul Malinowski took over for bass duties after departing with Season To Risk in 1995. With HitIt! Recordings releasing their second full-length Lula Divinia two years later, Sub Pop took notice and followed with the single “Sleep it Off”/ “Half Empty” that same year. After a brief tour with Hum in 1998, yet another single “Semper Fi” b/w “Sailor’s Fate” 7” came out a year after. With Jason Gerken taking over dums and Josh Newton manipulating the guitar, a third full-length studio effort Starless was released in fall 2000, and the band’s swansong The Egg was released in 2001 hinting at a more expiremental sound.

    I don't know why I avoided listening to Starless for so long. Finally listened to it properly on the last day of 2011. Been in love ever since. These guys did no wrong.

    Josh Newton (With Knives, ex-Every Time I Die, etc.) has confirmed that not only will Shiner be issuing their 2001 effort “The Egg” on vinyl in the coming months — but that the group will also be reuniting for some live shows in support of it. More details as they come.

    The Egg is such an amazing record. Incredibly underrated band. I love what Eppley is playing with TLAT but whatever happened to their drummer ? The Egg has some really amazing drumming.

There's a simple solution here... DON'T listen. thats awesome, dude - i've just heard Shiner recently and honestly, Lula Divinia and The Egg has to be the best music i've heard in awhile - their music just soars - they definitely are right up there with Failure and Hum for me...

    Great band, so much talent. Too Much of Not Enough should appear on the charts.
