In 2007, bassist Joanna Bolme, of Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks, who had toured with Quasi in 2006, became an official member of the band; she left the band in 2011.
In 1990, Coomes, Weiss, and Brad Pedinov formed the band Motorgoat. The band released two self-released cassettes and one 7" single before dissolving in 1993. Quasi started recording as a duo in 1993. They played with various additional musicians in early live appearances, but eventually settled on playing live as a duo as well. They self-recorded and self-released a cassette and a CD in 1993. They recorded R&B Transmogrification in the Portland band Pond's basement recording studio and released it on Up Records in 1997. They released two more albums with Up: Featuring "Birds" in 1998 and Field Studies in 1999; both albums were recorded at Jackpot Studios in Portland, Oregon.
In 1998 and 1999 they toured the U.S., Europe, Australia, and Japan opening for and serving as the backup band for Elliott Smith (who Coomes had played with in Heatmiser) as well as touring on their own in the U.S. and Europe. In 2001 They home-recorded The Sword of God and released it on Touch & Go. Quasi had been somewhat political since its inception, but their opposition to the 2003 Invasion of Iraq showed through in a straight-forward way with the release of Hot Shit! in 2003, particularly in the songs "White Devil's Dream" and "Master and Dog." When the Going Gets Dark followed in 2006, released on Touch & Go in the U.S. and Domino Records in Europe, as with Hot Shit!.
In Spring 2009, the band announced that they had signed to the Kill Rock Stars label, and were due to release their already recorded next album in the latter half of the year. That album, entitled American Gong, was released February 23, 2010 to generally favorable reviews. It was their first and only album to feature third member Joanna Bolme. Following a tour of Japan, Europe, and the United States in support of the full length, Bolme left the band. A duo again, Sam and Janet are recording material for a new album.

慧能大師 ::【一切爭端的生起，矛盾的產生，都是源自於我們自己本身的內心，對不同價值取捨的結果】
這段話 很棒，倘若能懂得運用這段話，
或許世間的爭端、煩惱、阻饒、傷害、損失 會有所減少。
而我能想到的，我不想遇到爭端，故此，當我遇到了 與我認知、想法、定義 不同者，
在合乎於理的基礎上，動之以情、行之以法 來調整自身對事件上的原有做法。
舉個例子:A說 藍黨 不好， B說 綠黨不好， 時逢選舉，於是A跟B 因此爭吵不休。
於我而言，A跟B爭吵 這件事 於我既"無損失利益" 也"無增加利益"。
那麼我會避免被 A跟B 的爭吵 所影響牽連，我這樣做 可以說是滿足了 情理法 對吧!?
但 如果換個角度想，A與B 是基於 對政黨的認知與價值 的差異而爭吵，
所以從爭吵來看，可以得知 對於 "政黨的價值" 是不同的 (註: 真如慧能大師所言)
倘若 A跟B 能夠將 基於政黨而起的爭吵事件內容
用【客訴】的態度去處理，訊息只要有傳遞的動作，那麼能處理訊息的單位就有機會接收到訊息，並且去作出相關處理。
這樣的舉動， 在日常生活 不難見到吧!???? 那麼，為何客訴 服務業 好像很容易， 客訴政黨 卻變成了另外一回事。??
而我天真的認為，對於公家私人機關團體單位，很多時候都只是【不知道】情況，所以才沒改善、才沒進步、抑或是改善不良、調整不盡理想。
以至於產生了【不滿】，所以，若是有人願意把爭吵的時間與力氣，用在告知能"處理問題的單位" ，讓其單位能知曉問題 以外，如果又能順帶給出 針對問題所配套出的解決方式，
那這樣是不是比較有意義與建設性 對吧!!?? 因為我的想法是， 與其只有謾罵、心生不滿、那是沒意義的，我相信 多數人會跟我有這樣的想法如下::
就像有人在旁碎念叨嘴，此時心中會想碎念撈叨者，為何不出力去幫忙完成事件，這樣不是能讓事情更快完成、產生更好的結果嗎??
總好過 兩個不相干的人 在討論著 看似有關連 有影響卻不深重 的 【事件】，大多都只是為了在當下能抒發情緒而已吧。
冷靜想想，你的鄰居在考慮要養狗還是養貓，結果你和家人或是其他鄰居在討論說 養狗的狀況 跟 養貓的狀況，甚至特別著重於對於貓與狗的喜好程度。
但，對於鄰居養狗養貓.... 是不是只要討論 鄰居的養貓養狗 是否會造成我們與其他鄰居的困擾 就好，甚至於 也可以 避免 鄰居養了貓與狗以後 會ˋ造成困擾，
也可以先前跟鄰居說，為了避免 日後造成 自己與其他鄰居的困擾，所以能否再養狗養貓前，多一分心思， 把是否會造成"其他人的困擾或損失" 也放在養狗養貓的衡量中。
小弟愚見、隨意看看便好，如有表達不合宜，還請 諸位大德 見諒 0.0

致慧能大師🙏
菩提自性本來清淨 但用此心直了成佛。
不思善 不思惡 此刻那個是你本來面目。
念念無間是功，心行平直是德，自修性是功，自修身是德。
即心名慧，即佛乃定；定慧等持，意中清凈。悟此法門，由汝習性；用本無生，雙修是正。

「不是風動 不是幡動 是仁者的心在動」
每次看到結局部份都忍不住流眼淚 打著這幾行字也是眼眶泛淚 🙏 感恩六祖留下這些寶典給我們眾生。
大家一起來修行致自己的心日趨平靜😊🙏
@niono2227
仁者：財色名食睡。色聲香味觸法。喜怒哀樂愛惡欲。都是境界風。本來無一物何處惹塵埃。🙏心在動處修不動。

"Carve your face for it is unique","killing is the nature of a thief,saving is the nature of kindness","learning do not help if you do no know yourself","neither the wind nor the steamer moves but your hearts","conflicts rise in your hearts". How true! An inspirational movie. Thank you for the clear and legible Eng Sub.
