Archive material and source history

Thieves Like Us formed in Los Angeles in 2004 with Sam Bair on vocals and guitar, Benjamin Ickes on guitar and vocals, Christopher Krolicki on bass, and Ian Teeple on drums. Their self-titled debut EP came out the following year, and the track 'New Order' from it developed a following for its melancholic, atmospheric quality.

They released two albums in quick succession: 'Keep the House Quiet' in 2006 and 'La Grande' in 2008. Songs like 'Drugs In My Body' and 'An Easy Tonight' typified their dreamy, introspective approach. The band's style, which drew from dream pop and shoegaze, often kept them from fitting neatly into mainstream categories.

After a hiatus, they returned in 2011 with the album 'Uncivilized'. Their final studio album, 'Bleed the Dream', arrived in 2015 and included the track 'Bleed Bleed Bleed'.
