Cardi_A

The New York City supergroup Cardia is comprised of Rival Schools' Ian Love, Andy Action of 2 Skinnee J's, St. John Scott IV of Shudder to Think, and former Verve Pipe bass player Brad VanderArk. Cardia honed their own sludgy space rock sound beginning in mid-2002. DJ Zane Lowe of London's XFM Radio picked up on the band before the year's end, praising the shimmery edge of "Love Loss" and "The Pretty Ones." Cardia's self-titled debut appeared on Silverthree in May 2003. ~ MacKenzie Wilson
