The Faint take the stage at Turntable in Indianapolis with the synth-infused spirit that helped weave 80s textures into modern music. Founded in Omaha in the mid-1990s, the band has followed its own creative compass rather than trends, and each release since the 1998 debut Media marks another evolution. 1999’s Blank-Wave Arcade captured the urgency of a quick recording sprint, while 2004’s Wet From Birth took shape through a more deliberate process. With 2001’s Danse Macabre they chased the pulse of Berlin club nights from their Nebraska home, channeling that energy into their sound. Throughout, the musicians remain the constant, working together on a style they hold as uniquely their own.
