Background

Office Supply started out as a joke band until a friend of the band created an account on Myspace.com using a boot-legged recording of the band's song, "Ice Cream Man on Cocaine" on the bands profile. Before the account was made, the band did small gigs at small gatherings held by friends. The location of the band is not really certain, but many beleive based on the bands MySpace account, they are from either Southern New Hampshire, or Northern Massachusetts. Like many other bands such as The Gorillaz and Reggie and the Full Effect, no one knows what the band members look like. All three members have chosen to use silhouette lighting during shows so they cannot be indentified. According to a fan at one of Office Supply's performances, frontman Tim Kimble says they want artistic freedom, while ignoring the spot light of the media.

Present

The band has developed quite a large following in the North East of the United States, despite their sketchy sound, and messy performances. The large following led to Tim Kimble opening his own recording studio. He entitles the studio, Toaster Records. Kimble was offered to sign with multiple local record lables, but felt that opening his own was the only way he could protect the bands identity. The band started working on their album in September 2005, and completed it in March 2006. Despite the studios laid back approach to recording, the band shipped out 10,000 burned CD's to fans. According to their website, Toaster Records relies on Office Supply's live performances as a source of income, rather than receiving royalties on CD's or downloads. Office Supply announced that they plan on making their 9 track album into a 14 track album, due out in the mid-summer of 2006.

Members

Like alias bands such as The Network and Kiss, Office Supply has three members that have all made fake names. Some fans beleive there is actually only one true member of Office Supply, while others fill in at different gigs, or record for the album with the one true member. Ignoring all of this, in the demands of what the band wants fans to believe, the band publicly says there are three members, who all play keyboard/synthesizer. Tim Kimble is the primary song writer, who basically writes and sings in every song of Work in Progress. Tracey Phillips is said to be the member who does back vocals while doing some layers of instruments in live performances. Max Templeton is the drum tech guru who deals with all the drumming aspects of the band. Unlike many modern acts, Max Templeton shuns using programs such as Garage Band or Fruity Loops. On their stage performances, Max Templeton has been known to break his equipment onstage. The Network is a 6-piece New Wave band and a rumored side-project of Green Day, who released their debut album Money Money 2020, on the independent record label Adeline Records on September 30, 2003. ...

A Bad Band?

When the band was first formed, all three members disliked the band. Tracey Phillips tried to play guitar and he was terrible at it. So they all switched to something they could all play, the keyboard. Many people consider Office Supply a terrible band. Many critics argue that the band is too repetitive. Others say the band is just simply annoying. It really seems to be a hit or miss sound. Office Supply has a range of sounds that compare to annoying [Nintendo]] sounds to helicopters landing. The bottom line is, many people boo Office Supply off the stage, while others praise them and their efforts. On October 6, 2005 Office Supply cut their 8 webpage flash website to one single Angelfire web page because hackers leaked a couple of their songs onto the net, taking advantage of the fact that Office Supply backed up their recordings on Angelfire's Webshell system. Office Supply now updates their website with news, while using their Myspace for most information. Despite the criticism, Office Supply has continued to create more music, and having fun while doing it. 6 October 2005 (Thursday) Five leaders of the Lords Resistance Army, a rebel group begun in Uganda, are targeted by the first arrest warrants to be issued by the International Criminal Court. ...
