Bob Tilton were an English post-hardcore band, from Arnold, Nottinghamshire. Formed in 1993 by former members of Downfall, the band helped to establish the mid-1990s UK emo scene alongside Liverpool band Dead Wrong. Following the release of their debut EP Wake Me When It's Springtime Again (1993), the band gained attention of the mainstream music producers, magazines and labels, however the band refused to interact with the industry. Their debut album Crescent was released in 1996, its fusion of emo and post-rock becaming a reference point for many subsequent post-rock groups. Following the album's release, the band became less active, as the band's member spread across England for university, disbanding in 1999. Their final album, The Leading Hotels Of The World (2000), was released posthumously.
