Nightlife is a band at Knox College, formerly known as Oedipus & the Motherfuckers. Their genre could be described as Knoxcore (kXc), a fresh and inviting sound derived from their four-year tenure at the institution. Current members include: Brooks Johnson, Will Faber, Steurat Pittman, Peter Burghardt, & Timmy Rairdon (who replaced former drummer Ryan Fitzgerald).

Nightlife has been the house band for Anti-Philosophy Club's annual prom.
Under the moniker of Oedipus & the Motherfuckers, Nightlife played Dan Morgridge's ill-fated Meltymedia improv show dressed as robots.
Bassist Peter Burghardt once saw a two-headed girl while lifeguarding in Minnesota.

-Beginning in 2003, Knox saw an explosion of students playing independent, underground rock music.  After Oedipus & the Motherfuckers took shape in 2003, several students began to take notice of making Knox an inhabitable place to play [[punk]], [[indie]], and other pejorative genres of music.  This led to the creation of new bands, including [[The Corners]], [[Daphne the Musical]], [[Wolf Blitzer]], [[Lightspeed]], [[The Hoot Hoots]], and the many faces of [[Firas Alexandar]].  Filling up basements, local bars, house parties, Wallace Lounge, & the Gizmo patio, these bands provided Knox with a healthy dose of creative and original music.
