Motion City Soundtrack由Joshua Cain (guitar), Tony Thaxton (drums), Justin Pierre (vocals/guitar), Jesse Johnson (moog) 和Matthew Taylor (bass)五个小伙子组成。乐队灵魂Cain和Pierre是高中同学,很小就受Sunny Day Real Estate, Jawbox, the Flaming Lips的影响,99年两人成立了Motion City Soundtrack,并发了个小样“7”,那时Taylor, Thaxton, 和Johnson还未加入。随后,随着成员们的陆续加入,2003年在制作人Ed Rose的帮助下,他们发行了PUNK处女碟《I Am the Movie》,专辑毫无矫情,受到乐评及歌迷的好评,被人称作glazed-punk(光滑punk?)。2005年他们发行了第二张专辑《Commit This to Memory》,而《Commit This to Memory Deluxe Edition》则是加入了bonus DVD和一首未发行的单曲Invisible Monsters在内,并重新在2006年发行。
总体来说,这支乐队风格清新,同众多主流POP-punk差不多,旋律编曲方面比较重视,主唱Justin Pierre嗓音不错,打入个排行榜没有什么问题,关键是大家怎么看他们了
A leading light in the punk-pop genre, Motion City Soundtrack includes members Joshua Cain (guitar), Tony Thaxton (drums), Justin Pierre (vocals/guitar), Jesse Johnson (Moog), and Matthew Taylor (bass). Following their high-school graduation, Minneapolis natives Pierre and Cain -- both of whom were inspired by Sunny Day Real Estate, Jawbox, the Flaming Lips, and Superchunk -- formed the band in 1999. The pair assembled a temporary lineup and issued a self-released 7" that same year. Later, while touring through Pennsylvania in support of their release, Motion City Soundtrack met Thaxton and Taylor of the Virginia-based band Submerge. The two musicians decided to leave their hometown of Richmond, VA, to join Motion City Soundtrack full-time, and the expanded band soon entered the studio with producer/engineer Ed Rose (the Get Up Kids, Ultimate Facebook). Three weeks before recording commenced, they were also joined by keyboardist Jessie Johnson (whose personal record label, Ordinary Records, had issued some of Jimmy Eat World's earliest material in 1995) to relieve singer/guitarist Pierre of his synthesizer duties.
With a new lineup firmly in place, the band's punk-glazed debut, I Am the Movie, was released in the summer of 2003. While playing venues and basements in support of the album, Motion City Soundtrack was picked up by Epitaph Records; later, they joined blink-182 on a tour through Europe and Japan. Blink's bassist, Mark Hoppus, took a liking to the band and agreed to produce their next album; the resulting Commit This to Memory was released two years later and featured an increasingly pop-heavy sound. A deluxe version of the album (complete with bonus DVD) appeared in 2006, and the band spent the summer on Warped Tour before heading to Europe with OK Go that fall. Entering the studio for the third time, Motion City Soundtrack began to work with producers Adam Schlesinger (of Fountains of Wayne), Eli Janney (of Girls Against Boys), and Ric Ocasek (of the Cars). The completed product, Even If It Kills Me, was released in September 2007.
