Alumni include Will Cullen Hart and Peter Erchick. Their sound is best described as "Appalachian Wave," a combination of electric and acoustic instruments and a blending of bluegrass, European folk, Krautrock, and new wave musical styles. Early on they briefly changed their name from Supercluster to FFFM and back again. Original Supercluster/Pylon guitarist Randy Bewley died in February 2009 before the completion of Supercluster's first album, Waves. Jason NeSmith and Bryan Poole joined in his stead. Bradford Cox of Deerhunter and Atlas Sound played guitar on a few of the album's tracks. They have performed at 500 Songs for Kids, Athfest, and Athens Popfest. The band opened several shows for the B-52s in the summer of 2010.
