Samuel

samuel was a band from state college, pennsylvania. they were active in the mid-1990's, releasing two 7" ep's (self titled and lives of insects) on the label art monk construction. the band also released a split 7" with texas is the reason on the then brittish label simba. samuel definitely played among the crowd of mid-90's 'post hardcore' or 'emo' bands. however, their sound probably owed as much to more straight forward 'indie rock' as it did to any of the member's hardcore roots. the lives of insects ep was released on a cdep with two additional songs.
