Taking cues from Les Savy Fav and the Dismemberment Plan, St. Louis’ So Many Dynamos formed in late 2002 and includes Ryan Wasoba (guitar/vocals), Aaron Stovall (keyboard/vocals), Griffin Kay (guitar/vocals), and Clayton Kunstel (drums).

Following an EP on Ambivalent Records in summer 2003, So Many Dynamos released its debut full-length, When I Explode (mixed by the Dismemberment Plan’s Jason Caddell), in 2004 on Skrocki Records. Flashlights, which expanded the band’s sound with a four-piece horn section and 30-member choir, arrived in September 2006. In addition to touring as the backing band for Emperor X, So Many Dynamos has toured with We Versus the Shark and Thunderbirds Are Now!

So Many Dynamos released “The Loud Wars” on Vagrant Records in June 2009.

When I Explode has been on my iTunes for so long, and I'm just now realizing how great it is. I love it so! I wonder what I will think of Flashlights?

My favorite part of the 7" split is definitely the handwritten lyrics, especially the fact that the melody of the bridge is written down as notes. Oh, and this is fun if you haven't seen it yet: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5l0xNAoHPFU

Unrelated, but does anyone know what the Album Art for Are We Not Drawn Onward to New Era? looks like. I can't find it online anywhere, but I love it it to death. I can't seem to find much information about it online anywhere either? Does anyone own a copy of it that could shed more light on it?

Audiobinge, I bought it recently off of the Bring Back the Guns site. http://bringbacktheguns.com/index.php?page=audio It took a bit to ship, but I got it eventually. Too bad they released It's going to Rain on the new album, making it kinda pointless to track down this split anymore. The Bring Back the Guns tracks on it are okay, but I wouldn't say it is worth buying just for them. Just get the new album by So Many Dynamos. It did come with a pretty sweet hand written lyrics thing (like a mass produced copy of it)

I'd like to get my hands on the split they did with Bring Back the Guns. Does anyone happen to have it? I've looked about everywhere and can't find those songs for the life of me.

These guys definitely have a D-Plan sound to them. The Loud Wars is really cool.
