ers, said they feature many types
of bands and that Lost Theory’s al
ternative music is good. Lost The
ory is a band that Carmine began
with lead singer, Hanley, whom
he’s known Since attending Cen
tral Catholic in Portland. They be
came good friends when they
were freshmen in high school be
cause they didn’t fit in with the
other students.
Hanley went into theater after
an injury forced him to leave foot
ball. He said he got into theater be
cause it was “the only expressive
part of Catholic school.” After
high school, Ben and Ian moved to
Eugene in the fall of ‘99 and by fate
ended up in the Creative Arts
dorm at the U of O.
“Last summer, I got a really
good amp in a little crappy apart
ment and looked for people to
play with,” Carmine said. “I had
the set up and needed a band.” A
friend told him about her neigh
bors, and Carmine knocked on
their door and met Hawver, a bass
player from Kansas. Houke, from
Madris, is Carmine’s lucky find
that came from another band, No
body’s Business.
He is an "extremely good drum
mer,” Carmine said. “He’s com
mitted; he has rhythm, timing and
hits really hard if he needs to.”
Carmine said KRS 1, “a guy
from the East Coast that did hip
hop,” changed his interest from
rock to rap.
The band is very knowledge
able about the stages that music
has gone through.
“Young people are so obsessed
about music that we knew every
thing,” Hanley said.
“1991 was a very important year
— the year Seattle exploded,”
Carmine said. He said when he
heard bands like Nirvana, he

thought, “Hey! What’s going on? It
has almost more energy and raw
ness then rap.” He said that bands
in punk, alternative rock and rap
have gotten “signed after one
show.”
The band has been influenced
by a wide variety of music genres.
“We like to combine ... blues,
jazz and funk into a real hard rock
sound,” Hanley said.
“We’re a mixture,” Hanley said.
They played reggae, a fun song
called “The Hoe Down” and “Sit
ting By the Dock of the Bay,”
though most of it was original mu
sic.
Hawver and Hanley explained
their perspectives of the difference
between rap and hip hop and
punk to someone who is musical
ly dysfunctional.
“Rap doesn’t define hip hop but
contributes to it,” Hawver said,
comparing it to the role a horn
plays in a jazz band.
“Punk is fast paced ... against
institutions,” Hanley said. “I like
their style, their courage to be on
the edge.”
At 11 p.m., after the third song,
Hanley took off his shirt.
“Here’s a song we wrote yester
day,” Hawver said. The band
joked in between songs. “It’s going
to b$ huge.” Carmine told the
crowd Hanley was going to play
the trumpet. During the song,
Hanley pursed his lips and
squeezed out the sound of a muted
trumpet.
“They have no inhibitions,” one
audience member said.
So what is their style?
“There’s no method to our may
hem. A lot of time we’re just free
styling,” Carmine said. Audience
members didn’t seem to mind
their free-styling mayhem.
“They’re awesome,” a young
man in the audience said.
“They’re one of the best bands I’ve
heard, and I’ve gone to quite a few
shows,”
Hanley describes the band’s

Members of Lost Theory say. they got their inspiration from a variety of influences, in
cluding reggae, rap, hip hdp, blues, jazz, punk and alternative rock.
style as something “you can’t real
ly put down on paper. ”■=
For a “big combination,” he
said, play “one riff,” let it “grow”
and “change.” Add “inflections,”
and allow for “changes in overall
style.” In their case, the tempera

pending on altitude, like baking a
Betty Crocker cake mix on Steen’s
Mountain.
“I’ll be hearing from these
guys,” a man in the audience said.
“They have the energy.”
During one song that Carmine
called the friend’s drum party, sev
en people, including the band
members and friends, dropped all
their instruments but the drums
for a goose-bump inducing mo
ment.
The band’s influences are di
verse, but Lost Theory’s music
“speaks to the youth,” Hanley
said. “We’re saying to them: Pay
attention to the world... Stand up
for your beliefs — and have fun. ”
And Lost Theory knows where
they’re going.
“Alternative music went away
around ‘95,” Hanley said. “We’re
trying to bring it back. ”
Lost Theory will be playing at
John Henry’s on Sunday, July 23.
