...And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead was formed in previous 1994 by Jason Reece and Conrad Keely, longtime friends wHO originally met in Hawaii before both settled in the perennial indie hotbed of Olympia, WA (where Reece fronted the notorious Mukilteo Fairies). Upon relocating together to Austin, TX, the duo played their number one shows as You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead, eventually adding both the conjunction and the eclipsis as well as recruiting guitar player Kevin Allen and bassist/sampler Neil Busch. After issue a live cassette on the local Golden Hour label, the group -- already legendary in indie circles for their lawless concert sets -- released their self-titled full-length debut on Trance Syndicate in early 1998. Following the label's give, AYWKUBTTOD touched to Merge to publication Virgin Mary in the fall of 1999. After signing to Interscope, the band issued the formidable Source Tags & Codes in 2002, followed by The Secret of Elena's Tomb EP in 2003. Worlds Apart, a prog rock-inspired epic, arrived early in 2005. Despite widespread acclaim for the album, its gross sales were disappointing, leading Keely to view disbanding the group. However, he and the rest of ...And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead establish inspiration in their frustration and bounced back up with the uncut So Divided -- which was ab initio conceived as an EP -- in late 2006.
