Vaux was formed in 1997 in Denver, Colorado, under the original name Eiffel. The band was comprised of Quentin Smith, Chris Sorensen, Ryder Robison, Adam Tymn, Joe McChan, and Greg Daniels. They released a 7” single themselves, To Write A Symphony, in 1998. Indie label Undecided Records signed the band after they had toured the East Coast extensively for two years, and the band’s debut album Audiblenarcotic was released in 2000. The album was a minor success on college radio, and the band earned a spot on the 2001 Warped Tour. In July 2002, for legal reasons, the band had to change its name, deciding on Vaux.

In 2002, Vaux moved to Orange County independent label Volcom Entertainment and released the EP On Life; Living, and the following year, second full-length There Must be Some Way to Stop Them. The album received widespread critical acclaim, prompting Alternative Press magazine to include Vaux in their 100 Bands to Watch feature. During this time, the band embarked upon successful tours supporting Thrice, My Chemical Romance, Coheed and Cambria and The Used.

In January 2004 Vaux signed to major label Atlantic Records. Shortly after, the band released a 5-song EP, Plague Music, on Equal Vision Records. The band’s major label debut, Beyond Virtue, Beyond Vice was due for release on November 8th, 2005. However, Vaux recently severed ties with Atlantic. The band has since released the album themselves which was available to purchase on their last headlining tour and is available on their webstore in limited quantities.

Jollyjigga, yep. Go to their myspace page and they have some blog entries about the new projects and I think they put some of the new projects at the top of the friend list. None of it's as perfect as Vaux was though :(

These guys don't sound much at all like Vendetta Red, yet they're on each other's top 7 similar artists.

There must be some way and On life; living are the best to start on and to finish on perhaps, the newer stuff doesn't retain this kind of balls out energy. I don't think many of the similar artists as listed are similar at all!?
