Orange County, CA-based Christian punk-pop outfit Slick Shoes formed in 1994 from the ashes of the local band Today’s Special, reuniting guitar player Jackson Mould with drummer Joe Nixon. Over the adjacent year, the duet worked at writing songs earlier recruiting bassist Jeremiah Brown; Mould ab initio fake vocal duties, only with the improver of so 14-year-old frontman Ryan Kepke, the Slick Shoes lineup was refinement, and within two weeks, the dance orchestra signed to the Tooth & Nail pronounce to publication their self-titled 1997 debut EP. The uncut Rusty followed later that like twelvemonth, and upon adding irregular guitarist Dale Yob, the group recorded 1998’s Burn off Out. Both Mould and Yob shortly exited, and with new guitar player Greg Togawa, Slick Shoes returned as a four-piece in mid-2000 with Ignite Up Screaming, promptly followed by a split EP with Cooter (the dance band that would later be renamed Autopilot Off) recorded for the Fueled by Ramen embossment. After a spell with MxPx and additional shows with Tooth & Nail artists Ace Troubleshooter, Calibretto 13, and Rod Laver, Slick Shoes issued their quarter record album, a self-titled effort in April 2002. Following the album’s transcription, several more than card changes ensued. Brown exited to be replaced by bassist Kevin Clark; both guitarists eventually left field as well and Jonah Peterson and David Stoltenberg would finally fill those positions. Far from Nowhere appeared the adjacent summertime on Side One Dummy, which preceded that fall’s The Biggest and Best greatest-hits compiling. Ever unstable, in early 2004, Nixon and Clark got the surge from Slick Shoes.
