Kansas City, MO, USA. This band was founded in 1995 by Matthew Pryor, Robert Pope, Nathan Shay and Jim Suptic. At that time, according to Wikipedia, they were playing a kind of Emo highly influenced by Indie-Rock. So, they didn't appear on my radar. In 2005 they'd broken up until 2008. And now in 2011 I recognize them the first time. Though, their sound has now nothing to do with Emo (in my opinion). It seems to me The Get Up Kids try to do experiments with their tunes. Their set up includes now a keyboard which you can hear definitely in the track "Shatter Your Lung". On 25th January they'll release a new album called "There Are Rules". In Europe it will be the 4th February.
