The band's early output, such as "The Freed Man" and "Weed Forestin'" (both released 1990), as well as "Sebadoh III" (1991), was typical of this style. After a 14-year recording hiatus, during which time members pursued other projects while occasionally touring as Sebadoh, the group returned in 2013 with the "Secret EP" and a full-length album titled "Defend Yourself", which were both self-recorded. Lead singer Lou Barlow says of the band's resurrected sound, "We kept to ourselves during the recording and didn’t have much, if any, outside intervention. That, to my mind, makes it a true Sebadoh record and aligns the style of "Defend Yourself" with our early releases."
