Brooklyn's brooding, post-punk-influenced trio the Prosaics consists of vocalist/guitarist Andy Comer, bassist Joshua Zucker, and drummer William Kuehn. Comer, formerly of the band Tel Aviv, met Zucker early in 2002 through a mutual friend, and began working on demos. A cassette of their song-sketches made its way to Kuehn, who used to play in Rainer Maria. The three-piece honed its collaborative songwriting aesthetic, and by summer 2002, the Prosaics were playing local gigs that drew critical praise. New York Magazine named the group as one of the city's "25 Best New Bands," and subsequent gigs with the Liars, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, and the Rapture cemented that reputation. In fall 2004, the band released its debut EP, Aghast Agape, via Dim Mak.
