ulysses [|sic] is an indie rock band formed by Robert Schneider (lead vocalist of The Apples In Stereo) along with John Ferguson and Ben Fulton in the spring of 2003. They released their first album, 010, on October 26, 2004 through Eenie Meenie Records. The album was recorded in monaural audio instead of standard stereo.
Band History
While in Spain, Schneider was inspired to write "Castles in Spain", the first song written for 010. Schneider began writing other songs for the album as well.
Schneider's main influences for the band's songs were The Velvet Underground and My Bloody Valentine.
In Lexington, Kentucky, the band formed by impulse when Schneider invited Ferguson and Fulton to organize songs for Schneider's other side project, Marbles. Schneider asked them to first play his set of 010 songs and recorded them as a demo. Soon Schneider decided to release the demo instead as a full album though Eenie Meenie Records.
In the process of writing and recording 010, Schneider's marriage with Apples in Stereo bandmate Hilarie Sidney ended.
