Southern California punks Face to Face formed
in 1991, originally comprising singer/guitarist Trever Keith, drummer Rob
Kurth and bassist Matt Riddle. Debuting early the following year on the
Dr. Strange label with Don't Turn Away, the trio was quickly snapped up
by Fat Wreck Chords, which reissued the LP soon after; adding second guitarist
Chad Yuro, Face to Face toured relentlessly in the months to follow, recording
a series of singles and compilation tracks collected in 1994 as Over It.
When the song "Disconnected" became a local hit thanks to steady airplay
on Los Angeles station KROQ, the group's profile grew considerably, and
1995's Big Choice sold in excess of 100, 000 copies. In the wake of Riddle's
exit, bassist Scott Shiflett signed on for Face to Face's major label debut,
a self-titled release issued on A&M; Ignorance Is Bliss followed in
mid-1999.
