Din was formed around Herron School of Art in Indianapolis during late 1987. They practiced in LonPaul & Gym's house on Talbot St. in a room completely filled with noise-making objects. Marimbas, metal pieces, chimes and flutes, augmented guitars, drums & bass. They used cymbals to play guitar solos and beat on gourds and plastic. Songs about animals and trains. They played parties and shows around the Herron area, often leaving the audience speechless and hungry for more. Din's strange, powerful, ugly/beautiful music displayed the creative trailblazing of its talented members.
