Biography
When the Blood Brothers disbanded in 2007, Johnny Whitney and Cody Votolato moved to Portland, OR and formed Jaguar Love with members of Pretty Girls Make Graves, while the rest of the band -- vocalist Jordan Blilie, drummer Mark Gajadhar, and keyboardist/baritone guitarist Morgan Henderson -- stayed in Seattle and teamed up with former Shoplifting guitarist Devin Welch (who had also been in an early Blood Brothers lineup) and became Past Lives. The band entered the studio in late 2007, working with engineer Dann Gallucci. The results were the Strange Symmetry EP, which was released digitally in summer 2008 and in physical formats that November via Suicide Squeeze. Past Lives also contributed to a 2008 edition of the audio magazine The Journal of Popular Noise. The band worked with producer Steve Fisk on their debut album, 2010's Tapestry of Webs. ~ Heather Phares, RoviRelated Videos:

History
The band got their start in late 2007 after the breakup of The Blood Brothers. Vocalist Jordan Blilie, bassist Morgan Henderson, and drummer Mark Gajadhar joined with former Blood Brothers guitarist Devin Welch and started working on their debut EP almost immediately.[1] Strange Symmetry was released on August 4, 2008 through Suicide Squeeze. It was initially a digital-only release with a limited run of physical CDs, but was later made more widely available on CD and vinyl.
Around the same time, the band was also featured in The Journal of Popular Noise, releasing a limited vinyl EP alongside other artists. The EP can also be downloaded from the band's official website.
A Myspace blog posted on November 17, 2009 detailed the forthcoming album, Tapestry of Webs. It was released on February 23, 2010 by Suicide Squeeze. The post includes a full tracklisting and says that the title is taken from a painting by Ryan Iverson who agreed to let the band use the image for the album cover.
