Boston's Dispatch was comprised of Brad Corrigan, Pete Heimbold, and Chad Urmston. The isthmus debuted in 1996 with Silent Steeples, and returned a class later with Bang Bang. Both albums displayed the trio's three-part harmonies and nervy, college-friendly amalgamate of Barenaked Ladies-style acoustic pop and folk-rock with some reggae and blue funk influences. June 2000 saw the issue of Four-Day Trials, a fan-friendly album of first-class honours degree takes and live favorites; the album featured a jammy take on the Beastie Boys' "Root Down." World Health Organization Are We Living For? followed that October, and was marked by a dissent strain vibe to go with the normal round of blast grooves. By this peak, Dispatch had built a sizeable East Coast following with university gigs and a strong Internet presence. The buzz secured Dispatch some national new rock airplay of the reggae-tinged single "Open Up." The isthmus returned in 2001 with Gut the Van, which enjoyed home distribution through and through the Digital Club Network on-line memory board. Issued in November 2001, the double-disc release showcased Dispatch's energetic unrecorded act for its growing audience.
