When one ponders the genre of dance-punk, Omaha doesn't quite come to mind, but Nebraska's Saddle Creek imprint has crafted solid careers out of Conor Oberst and quintet The Faint. The group released its first record, Media, a decade ago and has since released four well-received records. 2001's Danse Macabre and 2004's Wet from Birth demonstrated the band's penchant for electro-dance and lascivious lyrics. Last month, the band self-released Fasciinatiion that has yet to live up to their previous releases. Of course, their set mainly drew from it.
