Artists – I

2003 EP by Illinois ska-punk band The Indecisives released on To Define Records.

The Indecisives were a ska-punk group from the Chicago area in the late 90s and early 2000s.The lineup on this EP, which was their final release as far as I can tell, included Danny Schmidt on guitar, Bryan Scott on tenor saxophone, Andrew Ragin on bass, Dan Somen on vocals, Derek Dietrich-Muller on vocals, Jaimie Branch on trumpet, Brian Rorig on drums, Amanda Raber on 'something alto', and 'Pickles' on trombone. The EP was recorded by Mark Sampson at Cadence Studios in Naperville, IL and mastered by Michael Lyons at Lyonshead Mastering in Hoffman Estates, IL.

The band released two albums, Fully Assembled Ready To Fly in 1999 and Indestructible in 2002. Digging around on their website through The Internet Archive it looks like they broke up sometime in mid-2004. Most members of the band have continued playing in other Chicago-area bands, including Beat The Smart Kids, The Atlas Moth, The Right Aways, Hawkbit, among others.
