New York's Blood Group has included members Miss Jessica B., James Jackson Toth (who co-runs the independent record label Polyamory), Jarvis Tavvs, and Josh Taht (an ex-member of the Radiation Kings). 2001 saw the release of their debut recording, the eight track EP Everything Forgotten Gathers at the Ceiling, on the Le Grand Magistry label, which included special guest spots by Mercury Rev/Hopewell keyboardist Justin Francis Russo and underground hip-hop DJ/programmer NASA. The full-length Volunteers followed in 2002. ~ Greg Prato
