Before myspace there was this band called Treephort that really kicked a lot of ass and made a lot of people happy. They sold a vast amount of records independently, more than most independent bands of their era, and stories of their live shows are now of modern urban legend. Many members of the band, along with that band's fans, came and went as the music style of Treephort evolved throughout the years, but the focus of the band was always constant -- to do their own thing, to never be labeled into one specific genre of music and to always be the logical alternative to most other alternative music. Love 'em or hate 'em now, Treephort was one of the most resilient, respected and original bands of the early 2000s.
