The Christines surfaced in Denver in 1992, taking over venues such as Seven South (now the Hi-Dive), Skyline (burned down), and Bluebird Theater (renovated porn theater) and hit their stride after the release of their self-titled debut CD in 1994 (the single “Hollow” played regularly on Fort Collins’ KTCL and college radio nationwide, charted in CMJ, yeah, all the stuff that leads to nowhere…and all before people owned computers). Back in the days of metal, flannel, and grunge, The Christines were part of a new resurgence of psychedelic pop music in Denver (along with notable bands such as Twice Wilted and The Apples in Stereo). For a four-year span, The Christines were the reigning champs of shoegaze fuzz in Denver, touring nationally and opening for the likes of Oasis (during their crowning “Definitely Maybe”—era prime). A lineup change and two years later they released the follow-up “Living At The Bottom Of The Sea”. A move to San Francisco led to the recording of the band’s third album “Here It Comes Again”, begun in 2000 and due for release any second now (really, it’s going to happen). The original four members reunited December 2005 for a show in Denver, playing together for the first time in 11 years. This fall, 2008, there will be another. New songs are being written. The band is awakening after years of heavy rest.
