Named in honor of baseball player Marv Throneberry, this Cincinnati-based alternative/pop quartet debuted in 1994 with Sangria, produced by the Afghan Whigs' Greg Dulli. After 1996's Trot Out the Encores, Throneberry returned later that same year with the EP Guerrilla Skies; Squinting Before the Dazzle followed in 1998. ~ Jason Ankeny
