The Feelies are an alternative rock band from Haledon, New Jersey, United States. They formed in 1976, disbanded in 1992 and reformed in 2008. They frequently played at Maxwell's, a live music venue and bar restaurant in Hoboken in the 1980s. Their first album, Crazy Rhythms (Stiff Records, 1980) was cited by the Athens, Georgia band, R.E.M., as a major influence. The Feelies rarely worked with outside producers and created shimmering soundscapes with multiple guitar layers that sounded very unique compared to the punk/new wave atmosphere of the late 1970's and early 1980's.
