Ukudalwa kweqembu leFinger Eleven
Konke kwaqala ngo-1994 edolobheni elincane laseBurlington, eliseduze neToronto. Njengoba besanda kuphothula esikoleni samabanga aphezulu uSean noSkott Anderson futhi bephupha ngokunqoba indawo yomculo, bamema abangani (uRick Jackett, uJames Black noRob Gomermann) ukuthi bakhe iqembu. Iqembu elavela laqanjwa ngokuthi Izinkawu Ze-Rainbow Butt futhi laqala ukuzilolonga.
Abafana banikeze amakhonsathi abo okuqala ezindaweni zokushicilela zendawo. Ngokushesha, intsha enekhono yaqashelwa abakhiqizi belebula leMercury Records. Ukusebenza nochwepheshe ngokushesha kwafundisa abafana amakhono e-studio. Kwabe sekukhishwa incwadi yabo yokuqala, ethi Letters from Chutney. Izingoma eziphuma ku-albhamu zithandwa kakhulu emsakazweni nakumabonakude.

Ekhumbula amazwi enye yezingoma eziqanjwe ngaphambilini, uScott uhlongoza ukushintsha igama leqembu libe yiFinger Eleven, elamukelwa ngazwi linye. Ngawo lowo nyaka, ibhendi yakhipha i-albhamu yabo yesibili yesitudiyo, i-Tip, ekhishwe ngaphansi kwelebula ye-Mercury / Polydor Records.
Impumelelo yokuqala
Ngemva konyaka, ibhendi yashintsha isigubhu sayo. Umshayi wesigubhu omusha kwakunguRichard Beddo, owajoyina iqembu ngokushesha. Ukweseka i-albhamu ekhishiwe, ibhendi yavakashela eMelika, yashintsha ilebula yaba i-Wind-up Records, inkampani engaphansi kwenkampani edumile yakwaSony. Abaculi kulolu hambo bebephelezelwa amaqembu afana neThe Killjoys, I Mother Earth, Fuel neCreed. Isibalo sabalandeli bomsebenzi weqembu sibalelwe ezigidini.
Ngemva konyaka, umdidiyeli u-Arnold Lenny waqala ukuphikelela ekukhipheni i-albhamu entsha. Abafana bahlala ngokoqobo esitudiyo izinyanga ezimbalwa.

Iqembu lisebenze kahle ku-albhamu elandelayo yesitudiyo. Abaculi basebenze ithrekhi ngayinye ngokuphelela. Umphumela womsebenzi wonyaka nengxenye wawuyizingoma ezingu-30, okwakumelwe kukhethwe ezimbalwa zazo. Isinyathelo esihle ngaleso sikhathi kwakuwukushicilelwa kwenombolo yocingo wonke “umlandeli” ayengayishayela. Abalandeli basabele ngokubona lesi sinyathelo seqembu.
Isenzakalo esibalulekile kwaba ukujwayelana nomdidiyeli uJohnny K, osebenza nethimba Eliphazamisekile. Ochwepheshe bavuma ngokushesha. Ngenxa yomsebenzi wabo ohlanganyelwe, i-albhamu yesithathu yeqembu, i-Finger Eleven, yakhululwa ngo-2003. Ngesikhathi esifanayo, abafana baqopha ingoma ethi Sad Exchange, eyaba iculo le-blockbuster yaseHollywood i-Daredevil.
