The Paper Chase (sometimes spelled "the pAper chAse") is an alternative rock band formed in 1998 by well known producer/engineer John Congleton in Dallas, Texas, signed to Kill Rock Stars and Southern Records. Since its inception, The Paper Chase has produced a combination of discordant melody and jagged noise pop.

History

Congleton has produced all the band's material to date. He also wrote all of the material, with a few exceptions: Bobby Weaver co-wrote "A Face That Could Launch a Thousand Ships" and "Off with Their Heads" from the album Young Bodies Heal Quickly, You Know. Mike Sanger co-wrote "Throw Your Body on the Apparatus", and Elliot Figg co-wrote "When You Least Expect It," both from the aforementioned album.

It is now reported that Congleton is working on the recording of a two album concept for the paper chase centered around natural disasters. The first is normally planned to come out by the end of 2008 while the second (which may be named as a 'Part II') should be ready during 2009
