was a rock band from Atlanta, GA, where vocalist Jordan Williams and bassist Lee met as high schoolers. The duo became after uniting with guitarist Dustin and drummer Matt, and was soon struggling for gigs in the competitive Atlanta club and house party scene. Internet exposure led to a performance (alongside another young group, Incubus) on the short-lived TV show Farmclub.
attracted the attention of super-producer Ross Robinson (At The Drive-In, Slipknot) and Far/Onelinedrawing vocalist, Jonah Mataranga. Robinson hand-picked to win an opportunity to demo with him in a Shoutweb.com demo contest. Mataranga lent guest vocals to the band's emotional metal epic "Hesitant And Polite".
It was also around this point that threatened legal action persuaded Minus to add a period and "Driver" to its name. The newly christened was then snapped up by Universal in November 2002 and promptly sent to Los Angeles, where the group recorded a five-song EP. A Message for You was issued in August 2003, and showcased the band's surging blend of post-hardcore dynamics.
