Palms came together following the demise of ISIS, with Jeff Caxide (bass),<br>Aaron Harris, (drums) and Clifford Meyer (keyboards/guitar) electing to<br>continue playing music together. "After a little time Jeff, Cliff, and I<br>decided that it was insane that we all still lived here in Los Angeles and<br>weren't playing together" Harris says."It just sort of happened<br>naturally, probably because we have been playing together for so long, and<br>things started to come together. But we didn't want to be instrumental: We<br>wanted vocals. We just weren't exactly sure who that would be at first."<br>The band, knowing that Chino Moreno (Deftones) had been a fan of ISIS,<br>thought he would be a great fit and he agreed. "A chance to work with the<br>guys from ISIS sounded like a lot of fun." Moreno says, "I've always been<br>into the atmospheric sounds they had created with that project and felt my<br>sense of melody would meld well with theirs."
