About Us

    Navigating through the flourishing underground music scene on raw talent and dedication, the Chicago based indie rock duo consisting of lead singer/multi-instrumentalist Ilija Srbinovski and drummer/backup vocalist Max Svadlena, have been recording and perfecting their debut album. With a sound ranging from distorted guitar anthems, to melancholic ballads, the duo manages to capture the problematic aspects of young adulthood, through clever lyrics, infectious beats, and catchy melodies. Their debut album is highly awaited among the suburban/city music scene, amplified by the circulation of demo tracks throughout the community. It is expected to release in early 2025, with the singles being released over the fall and winter of 2024.

    The duo met while attending the University of Illinois at Chicago, after Ilija put up posters around the school looking for band members. After connecting with Max through email, the band was soon formed, and named after a math course that Ilija was taking at the university. There was instant chemistry between the two as their sound echoed through the hallways of the Chicago Music Garage where the band had their first practices. Bonding over their love for music, they managed to combine Ilija's Yugoslavian Rock and Experimental Rock influences (Bajaga i Instruktori, Queens of the Stone age, Radiohead etc) with Max's love for Twenty One Pilots, Austrian superstar Falco, and punk/rock music into their debut effort.
