Pop-punk/emo-rock band Halifax were formed in Thousand Oaks, California in 2003. Comprising Mike Hunau (vocals), Chris Brandt (guitar/vocals), Tommy Guindon (drums), Adam Charles (guitar), and Doug Peyton (bass) by the mid-2000s, the group owed much of its rabidly loyal fan base to constant touring and huge amounts of Internet exposure on sites like PureVolume and MySpace. The band's 2003 debut, Start Back at Start, was a fairly typical emo-pop offering released by <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22ECA+Recordings%22">ECA Recordings</a>. While on tour supporting the album, differing opinions on the band's future direction ultimately led to stylistic and member changes within the group. By the end of the year, Halifax pressed on with a new lineup, stronger sense of identity, and new energy. They issued the six-song EP A Writer's Reference on <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22No+Milk%22">No Milk</a> in 2004, and jumped back on the road for the rest of the year, including a month on that summer's Warped Tour. Guindon had previously mentioned his band to <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Drive-Thru%22">Drive-Thru</a> co-owner Richard Reines during an internship with the label; they were so impressed by the young band that Halifax were signed that summer. In conjunction with <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22No+Milk%22">No Milk</a>, their prior EP was remastered and released in January 2005 with an additional bonus track. Halifax's debut <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Drive-Thru%22">Drive-Thru</a> full-length, The Inevitability of a Strange World, arrived in spring 2006. ~ Corey Apar, Rovi
