399. At the Drive-in

Just when it thought that At the Drive-in was poised for a breakthrough they broke up.  The Texas based band reined as an important act of the Post-Hardcore scene.  Their music was well crafted and among the most cerebral and cryptic of its time.  They developed a sizeable cult following but as we have seen from the Hall and discussed on this site, cult bands, regardless of how good they might be very rarely receive consideration for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, but perhaps considering some of the members would form the highly acclaimed, Mars Volta, maybe there is a shot.
