June of 44 was an American rock band which was formed in 1994 from ex-members of Rodan, Lungfish, Rex, and Hoover.〔 The band's music is often described as 'boat rock'.〔Huey, Steve "(June of 44 Biography )", Allmusic, retrieved 2011-05-15〕 The band's name refers to the period during which writers Henry Miller and Anaïs Nin corresponded.〔 The band toured extensively and reached as far as Australia. Often referred to as the punk rock pirates of the math rock world, June of 44 were a collective from 1994–2000. All the members were living in different cities at the time. This seminal band created music that ranged from experimental jazz to ambient dub to angular post punk. Debut album ''Engine Takes to the Water'' (1995) drew comparisons with both Slint and Will Oldham. The following year's ''Tropics and Meridians'' saw the band compared to Tortoise and The For Carnation.〔Strong, Martin C.
