History
The band was started in 1995 by singer-bassist Chris Peigler, guitarist Luke Warm, and drummer Patrick Korson. Prior thereto, Peigler had been a member of several other bands, including Intensive Care and Proletariat Madonna, and has also contributed to the fanzine Razorcake. In 2001, they started their own record label known as "Suicide Watch Records". In 2002, they began recording their last album, Weapons of Mass Distortion, at the Recording Den with Mark Puerello.
Style
My So-Called Band's music, which was made deliberately to sound like that of pioneering punk rock musicians, has been described as "like Steve Forbert might've [sounded] if he'd fronted the MC5 while on the lam from all those Next Big Dylan delusionals," and like what would happen if "the Clash and The Ramones had mixed their musical chromosomes." They were also called " the Charlotte, N.C., answer to modern punk-rock" by Sarah Lee.
Peigler's death
Peigler died on January 8, 2014 at the age of 50.
