For Against | Artist

For Against is an American band formed 1984 in Lincoln, Nebraska, by Jeff Runnings (bass, guitar, vocals, keyboards), Harry Dingman III (guitar), Greg Hill (drums), Jon Fynbu (vocals) and Liz Panarelli (bass). The band's post-punk/dream pop style was inspired by the UK post-punk scene exemplified by the early Factory Records and 4AD label bands. Their recorded output falls into three distinct stages, the early albums Echelons and December, plus the EP In The Marshes, are excellent releases. Then followed a number of good but not great albums during the '90s. The 2000's saw a resurgence with the release of excellent albums Coalesced and Never Been. Despite numerous lineup shuffles and some periods of dormancy, the band continues with Jeff Runnings as the sole remaining member from the early lineup. Runnings also released a strong solo album Primatives and Smalls, in 2016.
