Biography

Philadelphia, United States (2001 – present)

mewithoutYou is a band from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania that formed in 2001. They are known for their warbling vocal style and introspective lyrics of lead vocalist Aaron Weiss, as well as their prominent bass riffs and guitar.

The band was originally conceived as a side project. The Weiss brothers and Kleinberg were playing together in another band called The Operation (who released one album, 2001’s There Is Hope For A Tree Cut Down, on Takehold Records), but Aaron wanted to start another band to experiment with new sounds. After picking up Rick Mazzotta on drums and Ray Tadeo on bass, Kleinberg and the Weiss brothers released their first EP (I Never Said That I Was Brave) in 2001 and shortly thereafter signed to Tooth & Nail Records after a show at Cornerstone Festival the same year. An even earlier six song demo EP called Blood Enough For Us All has also surfaced, apparently having been recorded in 2000.

Around this time Tadeo had moved on, Daniel Pishock picked up as the bass player, and The Operation disbanded soon afterward. mewithoutYou’s debut full-length album, [A→B]: Life, was released in 2002. The band garnered more attention for their sophomore release, 2004’s Catch For Us The Foxes, which was produced by Brad Wood (Smashing Pumpkins, Fire Theft). In December of 2004 Pishock had made a decision to retire as the bassist for the band and former Operation frontman, Greg Jehanian, was selected to replace him. In 2005, mewithoutYou won mtvU’s “Left Field” award for most original artist. Their third album, Brother, Sister, again produced by Wood, was released on September 26th, 2006.

    Unfortunately I'm the only one who prefers It's All Crazy over anything else from this band.

    mewithoutYou fans - I have been writing about an album every day this year for my project, One Record Per Day. Today I wrote (kind of a lot) about mewithoutYou's "Catch For Us The Foxes". It's one of my favorite albums ever and hits me hard each time. Feel free to check it out here: http://onerecordperday.wordpress.com/2013/02/02/day-33-229-mewithoutyou-catch-for-us-the-foxes/ and any additional feedback is much appreciated. thanks!

    I realized I am unable to rank their albums, they are so different and so consistently good.

    all of their albums are so good! personally i like their sound on brother, sister and catch for us the foxes better than the more folky style they do now, but its all excellent. it would be awesome to hear them put out another cd like i never said that i was brave

    after all the years they still haunt me... i remember how a->b life left me with a dropped jaw and goosebumps allover when it came out and how during that time said record helped me alot personally to hear it. it will always be a milestone in my own music collection. also their lyrics are so poetic..they even work without the music and always took my breath away. i love them so freaking much... plus they are absolutely lovely and caring guys and have their heart on the right spot. and i love about them that even though they are strong believers in lord and sing about it they never try to get you into that religion and accept you and leave you be the way you are. this is quite rare. and this is also how i always felt their music. they just make it, either you take it or you leave it, and if you take it its your own choice how you use it in your own world and life.
