Hailing from Albany, NY, stoner/doom outfit Greatdayforup took their name from a <a href="spotify:artist:4mi47OiK1uIz0TygMvYgW2">Dr. Seuss</a> book and first formed in 1999 -- initially with a sound comparable to minimalist alt-rockers <a href="spotify:artist:0qB0cTENhSUc0feov5qbg0">Helmet</a>, due to founding guitarist Mike Vitali's brief involvement with <a href="spotify:artist:0qB0cTENhSUc0feov5qbg0">Helmet</a> offshoot <a href="spotify:artist:3HAILRXvRhFoBrlYv8be3V">Handsome</a>. A gradual shift in style occurred over the course of regular touring and several independent releases, including 2004's God Loves a Sinner EP and 2005's split EP with Jersey stoners <a href="spotify:artist:1t6lG3RtA1w2Sne7A1722V">Solace</a>, and, at last reckoning, Greatdayforup featured vocalist Michael Diaz, guitarists Jay Sunkes and Mike Vitali, bassist Brendan Slater, and drummer Jared Krak. ~ Eduardo Rivadavia, Rovi
