The Marble Index was a Canadian band that could have been successful if they had remained together longer. They only released two albums and a third album was shelved. Fans of indie rock should enjoy them. The Marble Index were formed in Hamilton, ON. in 2001. Brad Germain was lead singer, guitarist and main songwriter. Adam Knickle was the drummer. They were unhappy with some of the bands they had been in. So they decided to start their own band. After holding auditions for a bassist, they decided to bring in their guitarist friend Ryan Tweedle to play bass. The Marble Index was a 1968 album by the German singer Nico. After recording an EP, Dan Brooks agreed to manage them. He's a Hamilton native but he lives in England. He brought them to England to record their 2004 debut album The Marble Index. They self released it. But it did well enough that it was picked up by Universal Canada. The album was written and produced by the band and recording engineer John Kettle. They opened for The Pixies on their Canadian tour. This album is available as a budget CD. The Marble Index were nominated for a New Group of the Year Juno. Their 2006 album Watch Your Candles, Watch Your Knives was produced by Scott Shields. They recorded songs for an album called Destroy the Earth While There's Still Time. The album was shelved and The Marble Index decided to go on hiatus. There is talk that the shelved album could finally be released. They reunited in 2018. Brad Germain has recorded as Dinner Belles and Spirits. He currently leads the band Golden Feather and they released an album last year. Here's the video for We Can Make It by The Marble Index.
