Which band hails from Oklahoma, Sebadoh or The All-American Rejects?
Sebadoh Sebadoh ( ) is an American indie rock band, currently signed with Joyful Noise Recordings. Sebadoh were formed in 1988 in Northampton, Massachusetts, by Eric Gaffney and Dinosaur Jr bass player Lou Barlow. Along with such bands as Pavement and Guided by Voices, Sebadoh helped pioneer lo-fi music, a style of indie rock characterized by low-fidelity recording techniques, often on four-track machines. The band's early output, such as "The Freed Man" and "Weed Forestin'" (both released 1990), as well as "Sebadoh III" (1991), was typical of this style. After a 14-year recording hiatus, during which time members pursued other projects while occasionally touring as Sebadoh, the group returned in 2013 with the "Secret EP" and a full-length album titled "Defend Yourself", which were both self-recorded. Lead singer Lou Barlow says of the band's resurrected sound, "We kept to ourselves during the recording and didn’t have much, if any, outside intervention. That, to my mind, makes it a true Sebadoh record and aligns the style of "Defend Yourself" with our early releases."
Tom DeLonge Thomas Matthew DeLonge Jr. (born December 13, 1975) is an American musician, singer, songwriter, record producer, entrepreneur, and film producer. He is the guitarist and lead vocalist of the rock band Angels & Airwaves and was the guitarist and co-lead vocalist of the rock band Blink-182, which he co-founded, from 1992 to 2015. DeLonge grew up in the suburbs of Poway, California, where he embraced skateboarding at an early age. DeLonge received his first guitar shortly thereafter and began writing original punk rock songs. He formed Blink-182 with bassist Mark Hoppus and drummer Scott Raynor during his high school years. The band created a following in the mid-1990s through independent releases and relentless touring, particularly in their home country and in Australia. They signed to MCA Records in 1996 and their second album, "Dude Ranch" (1997), featured the hit single "Dammit".
