“The Rapture stand tall among New York's latest wave of art-damaged punk-disco bands…”
-- ROLLING STONE

Formed in 1998 and a with a keen ear focused toward visionaries such as PIL, Televison, and Chrome, THE RAPTURE quickly formed a reputation across the country, among "those who know" for its energetic, often chaotic live sets. A year later the band relocated to New York City. The band dove into an exploration of dance and pop music, adding Chic, The Byrds, The Happy Mondays, and Timbaland to their previous influences. The Rapture’s Pieces of the People We Love was written over the course of 12 months after the band had finished touring their debut. They road-tested some of their new tunes in a series of low-key live shows up and down the east and west coasts. The results were suitably exciting -- the NYC show was voted Gig of the Year by New York Magazine.
