about the band
.
[
edit
] History
Allister was formed in
Chicago, Illinois
under their original name Phineas Gage by high school classmates John Hamada (
vocals
/
guitar
) and Tim Rogner (vocals/
drums
) with Eric "Skippy" Mueller (
bass
) in 1996. The following year, they changed their name to Allister, paying homage to
Alasdair Gillis
from the Canadian TV show
You Can't Do That on Television
. Upon being submitted a short demo tape,
Drive-Thru Records
decided to put out their debut release: a 7 inch
vinyl record
containing four songs, titled
You Can't Do that on Vinyl
(1998). Before the end of the year, Allister added another guitarist to the band, so Mueller took over guitar duties while Scott Murphy joined on bass.
In 1999, Drive-Thru Records released the band's full-length CD
Dead Ends and Girlfriends
with that very line-up. The catchy 32-minute album, which was recorded with a production budget of a mere $700, featured playful yet promising pop punk tunes, along with covers of the
Fraggle Rock
theme song
and the
Backstreet Boys
' "I Want It that Way". Within the following years, Mueller quit Allister. Hamada eventually quit as well, after tracking some songs for the group's follow-up record. Rogner replaced Mueller on the rhythm guitar, while Rogner's younger brother Chris filled Hamada's shoes on lead guitar and David Rossi joined on drums.
With the aid of producer Chris Fudurich, the band recorded their second full-length album
Last Stop Suburbia
in 2002, showcasing a certain degree of growth in the songwriting of Rogner and Murphy. The album featured several fan-favorites, such as "Radio Player", "Overrated" and "Somewhere on Fullerton" (an ode to the legendary Chicago punk venue, Fireside Bowl), though the band had to part ways with both Rossi and Chris Rogner, who would concentrate on his own band
August Premier
. The band added Kyle Lewis (guitar) — formerly of
Showoff
,
Now She's Gone
and
The Fold
— and
Mike
Leverence (drums) the following year.
In 2004, Allister toured the world (including
Europe
and
Japan
) and scored a small guest appearance on the big screen in the film
Sleepover
, before releasing their third album
Before the Blackout
(2005) and supporting it by semi-headlining the "Before the Blackout, after the Breakup Tour" with
Fenix*TX
.
The group released a
cover
EP titled
Guilty Pleasures
only in Japan in late 2006, which was supported by a simultaneous Japanese tour. Before the departure, Rogner learned that he was becoming a father and decided to take a job where he was more available to his family. Allister decided to go on hiatus following another Japanese tour throughout March 2007 — for which former Allister member Chris Rogner took his brother's place — and a farewell show in Chicago. Murphy and Lewis have since joined the band
The Get Go
.
