The band has released three full length studio albums to date: Floor, Dove and Oblation and one EP: Madonna. HistoryFloor and Dove (1992 – 2013){{Main|Floor (album)|Dove (Floor album)}}Initially from Miami, Floor was formed in 1992 by Steve Brooks (guitar), Anthony Vialon (guitar/bass) and Betty Monteavaro (drums). Jeff Sousa became the drummer in late 1993, and Brooks and Vialon changed their sound by implementing two uniquely low-tuned guitars, forgoing the need of a bassist. Material was recorded for two full-length albums (Dove 1994, Saturnine and Tears 1995) but neither were released until after their eponymous album years later. During that time several vinyl-only 7" EPs were released, followed by the bands first break-up in 1996. They reformed with a new line-up for one show in 1997 with Henry Wilson on drums and practiced only occasionally until 2001. They released their first full-length album, self-titled Floor, before splitting up in 2003. The Self-Titled album went on to garner accolades from the underground music scene and the bands' cult-following grew in their absence. Brooks would go on to form the band Torche. Henry Wilson went on to form the bands Dove and House of Lightning. Anthony Vialon, having also played several years with Miami outfit Cavity, focused on theology.[1] The band reformed in 2010 for a reunion tour to support the release of Below & Beyond, an 8-CD/10-LP box set encompassing their entire career.[1] Oblation (2013 – present){{Main|Oblation (album)}}In March 2013, Floor reunited again and announced its intention to tour and release a new album through Season of Mist.[2] Vialon said that after the group's 2010 reunion tours, Floor had, "noticed that our fan base had grown exponentially and doing a new record, kind of picking up where we'd left off, was something we agreed we should focus on."[3] Floor released their third studio album Oblation on April 29, 2014 to generally favorable reviews scoring 77% on aggregate website Metacritic.[4][5] Musical style{{Listen|filename = Floor_"Bomb_Note".ogg |title = "Bomb Note" |description = The "Bomb Note" as described by several critics from Love Comes Crushing |help = no }} The band is known for incorporating two low-tuned and distorted guitars that forgo the need to have a bass guitar. This includes the extended use of what some critics have called the "bomb note", an E string that is extremely loosely strung to the guitar. AllMusics Gregory Heaney called it "a shuddering explosion of sludgy distortion that comes from hitting a guitar string that's detuned until it's barely hanging on".[6] PopMatters described the effect as "a guitar string tuned so low it flaps like a pensioner's bingo wing"[7] while Grayson Haver Currin of Pitchfork remarked "Who needs a fourth wheel when you’ve got 12 strings tuned to the introductory letters of the alphabet?".
