Minneapolis, MN, United States
Formed
1977
Genre
Rock
While the Replacements, Hüsker Dü, and Soul Asylum were the Minneapolis bands that took the city's underground rock to international attention, the Suburbs were the Twin Cities' biggest local act of the 1980s, packing the biggest clubs in town with a smart, challenging, and darkly witty combination of punk energy and snark, new wave polish, tough guitars, and hooky dance rhythms. They recorded for Twin/Tone (including a 1978 debut EP and the albums In Combo and Credit in Heaven), Mercury (including 1984's Love Is the Law), and A&M (1986's Suburbs). In 2013, the band released the Kickstarter-funded Si Sauvage.
Members of The Suburbs include, or have included, Jeremy Ylvisaker, Chan Poling, and Michael Halliday.
