Portland, Oregon's psychedelic pop duo Wampire consists of Rocky Tinder and Eric Phipps, childhood friends who began making music together while they were still in middle school. By the mid-2000s, the pair were fixtures on Portland's house party scene, making music that was as loud and danceable as possible. However, Tinder and Phipps wanted to take a more versatile approach to their sound when it came time to making a Wampire album, and after signing to Polyvinyl Records, they collaborated with Unknown Mortal Orchestra's Jake Portrait, who produced the sessions that resulted in March 2013's The Hearse single and the full-length Curiosity, which arrived that May. ~ Heather Phares
