Piebald started as a hardcore band in Andover, Massachusetts, out of the same scene that produced Converge and Cave In.[1] Originally a key Massachusetts post-hardcore band often seen touring with fellow DIY hardcore bands such as Jesuit, Reversal of Man, and Harvest during the mid to late 1990s, they later moved to the Boston suburb of Somerville and became a staple of the Greater Boston indie rock scene. HistoryTheir first gig, a "Battle of the Bands", is chronicled on their two-CD set Barely Legal/All Ages. From the liner notes: ".. from the sound board (sic) 1994 battle of the bands, Piebald lost." From there on, they recorded and played shows together semi-seriously. Shortly thereafter in 1995, Piebald started recording, which amounted to a 4-track demo, and a 2 track split. The driving hardcore sound exhibited during these years was highlighted by the technical playing of drummer Jon Sullivan, and the deep screams of vocalist and guitarist Travis Shettel. Post hardcoreA turning point in Piebald's career came when they recorded seven tracks, and put them on the CD that came to be known as Sometimes Friends Fight. Their musical sound had greatly matured, and Travis' lyrical ability was finally brought to the forefront of the band's music. Another two seven-inches later, Piebald was ready for another metamorphosis. Eleven tracks recorded at Salad Days became the first record to showcase Piebald's signature sound and wry jokes. Traditionally the most sought-after Piebald recording (before it was immortalized in its entirety on All Ages), When Life Hands You Lemons was considered to be Piebald's best music yet. This release furthered the lyrical style that had been growing within the band, and also showcased the first lead vocals by lead guitarist Aaron Stuart, and a piano track by Shettel. Breakthrough{{Weasel|date=March 2009}}Following If it Weren't for Venetian Blinds, It Would Be Curtains for Us All, Piebald released We Are the Only Friends We Have. It featured the single "American Hearts" which achieved some success, garnering mention on MTV and college radio. This, together with the band's signing to indie label Big Wheel Recreation brought Piebald their most mainstream attention to that date. The trend was continued when the band signed to Side One Dummy label and released their next album, and when Piebald was chosen to play 2004's Warped Tour. The following album, "All Ears, All Eyes, All the Time", the band's first release on Side One Dummy Records, featured piano-driven compositions, along with horn arrangements and vocal harmonies. "Accidental Gentlemen," their last album of original work, was released in 2007. BreakupOn August 19, 2007, a bulletin was posted from the band's official MySpace page as well as in the "News" section of their official website, announcing the dissolution of Piebald.
The band played three final farewell shows in April 2008: April 17 at the Bowery Ballroom in New York City, and April 18 and 19 at The Middle East (nightclub) in Cambridge, MA. Their final release is a Live DVD / Documentary called "Nobody’s Robots : A Farewell To Piebald." It includes the entire farewell show in 5.1 surround sound, a retrospective documentary and an anthology of the band's several music videos. Audio from the show is exclusively available through iTunes. The DVD was released nationwide July 13, 2010 on Sidehatch Entertainment Group.

The set contains material recorded and released by Piebald while signed with Big Wheel Recreation from 1999 to 2002. Each disc also includes various B-Sides and rarities.
