Biography

The Fire Theft released a self-titled album on September 23, 2003 on independent label Rykodisc. It was similar to The Rising Tide (Sunny Day Real Estate's last studio album) in that it was less typically emo than a lot of the work made by their previous band. Only "Chain" was released as a promotional single. A tour promoting the album followed up. Since then, the band has been in a hiatus.Concerning future projects, Jeremy Enigk has stated on the official message board that he imagines "The Fire Theft will be back in full swing. We just have to find another record label or start our own". A DVD with the band performing in Seattle has also been announced, but nothing was released to date [cite web| date=2005-08-26| title=The Fire Theft Messageboard | publisher=Jeremy Enigk| url=http://www.thefiretheft.com/mboards/topic.asp?id=8184&forumID=1 | accessdate=2008-01-02] .More recently, a Billboard.com article states that the band is in discussions about regrouping. In the same article, Nate Mendel says "We're not really quite sure. But we're making some plans to play together in one way or another -- hopefully next year" [cite web| date=2007-12-18| title="Foo Tour: Two Stages, Big Band, But No Pyro" | publisher=Mitchell Peters (Billboard.com)| url=http://www.billboard.com/bbcom/news/article_display.jsp?vnu_content_id=1003686689 | accessdate=2008-01-02] . Jeremy Enigk has added on an online interview that the band has been "talking about becoming a recording band: only record and not tour". Enigk also plans to release the next album on Lewis Hollow Recordings, his own record label [cite web| date=2006-11-06| title=Jeremy Enigk "World Waits" (Lewis Hollow) | publisher=Tim Den, Transform Online| url=http://www.transformonline.com/music/features/005429.php | accessdate=2008-01-09] .
