Background notes
Archive material and source history
NRTHWST formed in Seattle in 2015 with four members: vocalist Erik Ranson, guitarist Tyler Ramsey, bassist Evan Johnson, and drummer Kevin Johnson. They released their debut album 'Al Capone' in 2018, which included the track that shares its name. That song became their breakthrough, though the existing history doesn't specify exactly how it reached listeners.
Their music pulls from hip-hop and grunge, which gives it a particular texture. Beyond 'Al Capone,' they have songs like 'Clones' and 'CYBERLOVE' in their catalog. In 2020, they put out a second album called 'The Northwest.'
In 2019, there were some public discussions about their use of influences from African American musical traditions. The band acknowledged those influences at the time. The existing material doesn't detail much about their activity since then.
