One of this band's songs references the divisions between Northern and Southern California, amid chants of "40 million daggers," and "we want two states." Another song concerns a group of "Southern boys just like you and me," and describes General Sherman's encounter with R.E.M. during his march through Georgia. Formed in Stockton, California, this band replaced drummer Gary Young with Steve West following the tour for their first album, Slanted and Enchanted, which was followed up with 1994's Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain. Other albums by this group include Brighten the Corners, and their last effort, Terror Twilight, before they split up in 1999 and their lead singer formed The Jicks. For ten points, identify this indie band fronted by Stephen Malkmus.
