The Texas quintet Blue October formed during the post-grunge boom of the mid-'90s, when vocalist/guitarist Justin Furstenfeld began penning angst-ridden rock songs with the help of his brother, drummer Jeremy Furstenfeld, and violinist Ryan Delhoussaye. Bassist Matt Noveskey and lead guitarist Brant Coulter completed the band's initial lineup, and Blue October released an independent debut album, The Answers, in 1998. The band's emotive brand of post-grunge led to the sale of 5,000 copies in their native Houston alone. Two years later, Blue October made their major-label debut on Universal with Consent to Treatment.

 

Blue October have risen through the ranks to become a platinum selling rock band with a body of work that includes modern rock hits like “Hate Me” and “Dirt Room” and the #1 VH-1 smash, “Into The Ocean.” The band’s sixth album will be released in the summer of 2011 when they will take their heart on the sleeve live show from Austin City Limits to the world.
