Over the Rhine

A remarkably talented band from Cincinnati, Ohio. Formed in the late 80's, they managed to stay beneath the radar of mass-acceptance while continuing to produce some of the best music ever known to mankind. Though enduring bumps and rocky roads, the timelessness of albums like _Eve_ and _good dog bad dog_ have continued to surprise listeners fortunate to stumble across wide-eyed wonder.

Also, the slum district of Cincinnati where the band first met.

Section of Cincinnati Ohio which was placed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1983. While Over The Rhine is now the poorest neighborhood in Cincinnati, it is my favorite part of the city. It is full of historical buildings and monuments. In the mid to late 1800's this section of the city was booming with breweries (and drunken people).
