Detachment Kit is an American indie rock band formed in 1999. ==History== Detachment Kit was started in Chicago, IL in 1999, by Toddrick Spalding (drums), Josh Hight (bass guitar), and Ian Menard (vocals, guitar, previously of Caesar's Glass Box). Toddrick met Charlie Davis III through his roommates and the band was completed. They were all art school students,〔DePasquale, Ron "(Detachment Kit Biography )", Allmusic, retrieved 2010-06-08〕 Hight (video/film) and Spalding (graphic design) attended Columbia College and Menard (painting/photography) and Charlie H. Davis III (lead guitar/painting/drawing) attended Art Institute of Chicago. The band recorded a demo soon after the line up congealed which was released as the ''Attacks On Bright America'' EP in 2001 on limited 10" vinyl on Chris Newmyer's Self-Starter Foundation label.〔 The follow-up full-length album ''They Raging. Quiet Army'' was recorded in two days at Steve Albini's Electrical Audio and also released on Self-Starter Foundation (it was subsequently re-released on spinArt Records and Bad News Records in Japan). The album was a hit on college radio.〔 The band toured relentlessly and built a loyal fanbase. Spalding and Hight left the band during the writing of their second album, so Davis and Menard continued on to make the record ''Of This Blood...'', recorded by Greg Norman, on which Menard played guitar and drums and Davis played bass and guitar. The band relocated to Brooklyn, New York, and recruited the rhythm section of Michael Hamilton (drums) and Bryan Mayer (bass guitar) for live performances. In 2005, Nick Davis replaced Michael Hamilton on drums.〔"(Detachment Kit Profile )", Frenchkiss Records, retrieved 2010-06-08〕 Original Detachment Kit bass player Josh Hight later went on to form IRONS. In January 2010, Menard and Charlie Davis started a new band with Jess Birch (of Watchers) called BRONZE, releasing their self-titled debut EP in May 2010. Detachment Kit toured extensively, playing on the same bill as bands such as Les Savy Fav, Sparta, Thursday, My Morning Jacket, Burning Brides, The Walkmen, Hot Hot Heat, Coheed and Cambria, Cursive, Guided by Voices, The Dismemberment Plan, and Jimmy Eat World. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Detachment Kit」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
