Lustra were the kids that no one would play with. Chris and Nick started back in Boston as a two-piece outfit comprised of drums and bass. They squatted in other bands' spaces, sweated and bled on borrowed gear, and nursed themselves into fighting shape on countless cases of Meister Brau. They were the rambunctious younger brothers to every band they knew, and noone would play with them. Not until they developed their dangerously unschooled drums-and-bass explosion into a noise slightly resembling rock, did they make the addition of Chris' brother Jon on guitar. The Pixies, Girls Against Boys, Jesus & Mary Chain, Dinosaur Jr, Helmet, Six By Seven
