The Long Now arrived in 2008 with "Farewell Rocketship", all ragged urgency and guitars turned up past polite, and Theory of Everything followed in 2010, carrying "Jellylegs" and "My Eagle".
Mackay and Crawley stayed the core of the band for its whole initial run, with Universal Music Group and Dine Alone Records among the labels behind them. Caesar quit the drum stool in February 2012.
