Album Description
Available in:
Four Minute Mile is the first full-length album released by Kansas City, Missouri emo band The Get Up Kids.The album was recorded in April 1997 on a budget of $4,000. It was produced by Shellac bassist Bob Weston in Chicago over the course of two and a half days.It was released by Doghouse Records on September 30, 1997. The album was released on CD and vinyl. The vinyl release consisted of six pressings on black and colored vinyl, including blue, gold, red and clear.The release brought a great deal of attention to the band, leading to offers from larger labels.
The album was well-received, if not a major commercial success. The album helped the band develop a national fanbase, as well as garnering a bidding war over the band from several major labels, including Geffen Records, Sub Pop Records and Mojo Records. The band ended up signing with Mojo, but was quickly disappointed with their choice when the label asked the band to re-record the song "Don't Hate Me", feeling that the label was underestimating their potential.
The album also had a lasting impact on other musicians. In a 2005 interview with AP Magazine, Pete Wentz of the Chicago pop-punk group Fall Out Boy remarked that the album had a major influence on the band as a whole. "The first time I heard [The Get Up Kids] was around Four Minute Mile. I was in high school. There was an honesty and sincerity [to the album]. It seemed more about the fact that this music was "emotional," than an actual sound than labeled them". In the same interview, he remarked that "Fall Out Boy would not be a band if it were not for The Get Up Kids".
