According to drummer Eric Scheiner: âThe first time I spoke to Chris Howe, I eyed him the same way a person would a snake trying to decide if it was venomous. It was the right gaze to give. I think at the time maybe he was.â

It was the mid 1990âs, and these two snakes would soon be charmed by music, intoxicating themselves with the sights and sounds of the Boston/New England music scene of the time. Performing on and off again in various bands for half of that decade.

Then in 2003, after some time apart, singer/songwriter Howe and Scheiner decided to get together again and try something completely different. The concept was The Wood Floors. A band that would attempt to capture the energy of creation, by writing and recording on the spot. They started with an album called âThe Bitter Endâ and moved quickly onto âCursory Interestâ, âViolenceâ and âKnowing Girlsâ. These albums featured big hooks, catchy melodies, and lyrics about women who could make you feel weak in the knees, or simply take you down and out at the same location. At this time they were also playing live as well. Having adopted the stage names of James Jennison and Buzz Halliday they played with a variety of bassists, and went on to record the more polished and rehearsed âFor Rodriguezâ, âGirls Inc.â and âDivorce Saleâ between 2004 and 2005.

Their previous releases had gained them a cult following, and a local buzz. In 2006, they went back to the spur of the moment writing style and their real names, with âEvery Act Of Pleasureâ and quickly followed it up with the double album âCatwalks in the Coliseumâ, before moving onto the cinematic LP âEnfant Terribleâ. Women and the darker elements of relationships have remained constant themes throughout.

Adding new power and dynamics to their sound in â06 are bass player Nick Poulin and rhythm guitarist Nick Blanchette. âThe line-up and sound of The Wood Floors has never been betterâ, says Howe.

The Wood Floorsâ sound embraces a wide spectrum of influences and ideas, but reaction to it is always similar: âThe powerful sort of bad magic you are looking for, that much is certain.â (The Noise 6/2/04), âcatchyâ with âdark undertonesâ (HippoPress 8/2/04), and âEssential, thoughtful, brilliant pop music.â (Echo 4/7/06)

With 10 recordings in three years The Wood Floors have tasted from a rare fruit in the music industry, creative proliferation. âThe problem with the Floors' mounting cannon is not qualitative, but a question of how to approach such a prolific entity.â (Echo 4/7/06)
A problem that is easily solved with an attentive ear, a damaged heart, and a thirsty soul. Turn up the Floors and drink your fill.
