The Kübler-Ross Conspiracy was an American indie rock band formed by singer, guitarist and songwriter Jason Trojan in the early 1990s. The band was noted for its experimental sound, obscure lyrics, and eclectic instrumentation. Trojan took the band's name from a popular book about death and grieving.
Trojan's first release as The Kübler-Ross Conspiracy was the 1994 EP Mouth, a short collection of tracks featuring Trojan and several uncredited studio musicians. On the band's full-length debut album Ears, which followed shortly thereafter, Trojan was joined by Dwayne Hancock who contributed production and instrumentation. The Kübler-Ross Conspiracy released Eyes in 1998, which became their most well-known and critically acclaimed album. Although the album did not meet commercial success at the time of release, it has gone on to sell over 300,000 copies and is often ranked as one of the greatest albums of the 1990s indie genre.
Despite growing popularity, the group disbanded in 1999 after Trojan became disenchanted with touring and the music press, later having a nervous breakdown and then diagnosed with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.
