VANS HOUSE PARTIES | THE RAPTURELast night House of Vans Chicago welcomed American indie rock icons, The Rapture. Exploring a variety of genres over the years, The Rapture are known for keeping fans guessing with punk rock, electronic and dance influences. The Rapture formed in 1998 in when drummer Vito Roccoforte and guitarist/vocalist Luke Jenner started playing music together. The guys toured relentlessly building a name for themselves and becoming more immersed in the indie post-punk scene. After Matt Safer joined the band, the guys released their first EP, Out of the Races and Onto the Tracks via Sub Pop records in 2001. Their first studio album, Echoes debuted in 2003, and went on to make two more full-length albums, followed by a hiatus from 2014 to 2019.In February of 2019, Jenner announced The Rapture would begin playing shows again and hinted that new music isn’t off the table. He told indie music outlet Consequence of Sound, “I would like to do this indefinitely and make new music. I think we’re all cautiously optimistic.”The Rapture is on tour this summer across the US, details here. Photo Credit: Daniel Boczarski -- source link
