Background notes
Archive material and source history
SPF1000 formed in Los Angeles in 1988 with Scott McPherson on vocals and guitar, Jon Matlock on bass, and Kelly Wheeler on drums. Their debut album 'Bionic' came out the following year. The band's second album 'Ginger' included the song 'Angel,' which became one of their better-known tracks.
They released several more albums through the 1990s and early 2000s, including 'Hum' in 1994 and 'A Thousand Days' in 1996. Their catalog also includes songs like 'Death for the Dead' and 'I Don't Like The Drugs.'
McPherson's personal struggles with substance abuse and mental health affected the band at times. Their lyrics often dealt with themes of isolation and alienation, which some listeners found challenging.
SPF1000 developed a cult following for their atmospheric sound and emotionally direct songwriting. They stopped releasing new music after 2003's 'The Cure,' but their earlier work continues to find listeners.
