Game Theory was an American rock band that originated in 1982 in Davis, California. They quickly gained popularity and their music was widely played on student-run university radio stations. Game Theory was one of the pioneering bands in the "college rock" genre during the 1980s.

Their unique sound and catchy melodies drew inspiration from a variety of genres including power pop, jangle pop, and alternative rock. With thought-provoking lyrics and infectious hooks, *Game Theory* captivated audiences with their distinctive style.

Influenced by bands such as Let's Active, Tommy Keene, The Loud Family, and The Three O'Clock among others, *Game Theory* created a sound that resonated with fans across the nation. Their music continues to inspire artists today and remains a testament to their lasting impact on the music industry.

30th anniversary reissue of Game Theory's classic second full-length. Omnivore Recordings' re-introduction of the Game Theory catalog continues with the 30th Anniversary reissue of 'Real Nighttime'. Their first in a long line of albums produced by Mitch Easter (R.E.M., Let's Active), this version adds an astonishing 13 bonus tracks (10 previously unissued) to the original album's lauded twelve. From hard-to-find compilation tracks to live and unheard material (including covers of songs by Gerry Rafferty and Queen), 'Real Nighttime' now not only stands as the band's breakthrough, but as a true document of their emergence into the annals of music history. Available on CD, as well as a translucent red LP (with download card for entire CD program), 'Real Nighttime' stands as a fan favourite, and as a truly classic release. Packaging includes rare photos and an interview with Mitch Easter and series co-producer Pat Thomas, as well as notes from Byron Coley (Spin, Forced Exposure) and a remembrance from Carl Newman of The New Pornographers. The sun has risen once again on the Game Theory catalog. Now it's time to prepare for the 'Real Nighttime'.
