The Exies' 2004 album "Head for the Door" is a document of a band hitting their stride, merging driving rhythms with a melodic sensibility that belied their sometimes-abrasive sound. It’s a collection of tightly-written songs that deserved a wider audience than they received.
- The album was produced by Ulrich Wild, known for his work with metal and alternative bands. The single "Ugly" received moderate airplay on alternative radio stations. The album was released by Virgin Records, a major label at the time.
- "Head for the Door" was the band's second album, following their debut "Here 'n' Now." It was released on November 30, 2004. The band explored a slightly more polished sound on this record, moving from their initial raw energy.
- The album failed to chart on the Billboard 200. It was the band's only release on Virgin Records before they moved to smaller independent labels. The Exies disbanded in 2009.
The Exies were an alternative rock band from Los Angeles, California. They were active in the early 2000s indie rock scene.
