Starting in [[Grass Valley, California|Grass Valley]], [[California]] in 1997, their lyrics are often reminiscent of [[eco-anarchism]], especially since they recommended readings such as ''[[s:Industrial Society and Its Future|The Unabomber Manifesto: Industrial Society and its Future]]'' ([[Theodore Kaczynski]]) and ''Deep Ecology for the 21st Century'' (George Sessions) on their first album ''Enemies of Progress.'' In 2003, Pipedown released ''Mental Weaponry,'' again on A-F Records. Over the course of this group's lifetime, Pipedown took part in over five full U.S. tours and two European tours spanning 8 countries; sharing stages with the bands: [[Anti-Flag]], [[Thrice]], [[The Bouncing Souls]], [[Darkest Hour (band)|Darkest Hour]], [[The Lawrence Arms]], [[Tsunami Bomb]], etc. On July 13, 2005 A-F Records announced Pipedown's breakup.
