Surrogate Mckenzie- Six Degrees of Seperation

old thread coming back to life... i'm getting into all those pre-Gaslight bands, and there are some things about surrogate mckenzie that are bugging me: for example, do we know when was this? (like, 2000? 2002?) did the albums ever came out physically? if so, when and where are the covers? and who were the members of this band? was this before Cincinnati Rail Tie and Amping Copper?
i know those are a lot of questions, but i hope someone could give some answers

all the info I have is on my site at http://www.gaslightanthem.org/earlier.htm

although I lack dates for most of these earlier bands, I gather that Surrogate McKenzie came before Amping Cooper, which came before Cincinnati Rail Tie

According to the iTunes info, the first two SM albums (S/T and Songs to Grow Up To...) came out in 1998. I'm pretty sure the last one (The Six Degrees of Separation...) came out in 2000. And, also according to the iTunes info, the Amping Copper demo was released in 2001. The CRT EP was released in 2004.

thank you so much

Well, I've finally go hold of a photo of Surrogate McKenzie (taken after a show at Girls Inc. in Newark, Delaware, in 1999 or 2000).

Okay, it's not the clearest of photos, but I like the mysterious edge. Aside from Brian (I assume he's the one on the right), who are the other guys?

Been wondering, is it Brian doing the shouting part in the song Switch?

Hi all!
This is my first post here. I love TGA since I discover them, but last time I listen earlier bands of TGA members. I found Surrogate Mckenzie on that forum, but I have some troubles with lyrics. It is hard to me to hear all words, so I ask You for help
I mean, someone could write a lyric to song Surrogate McKenzie"All you got"?
I'll be grateful!
Greetings from Poland!

Damn Id Pay Great Money for some Surrogate Mckenzie and Amping Copper Stuff, My Friend Has the Coffeehouse Sessions, but wont let me get ahold of it.
