Question: Did the Canadian rock band Moist form before Natalie Merchant joined the 10,000 Maniacs?
Context: Evening in Torpor was a student-project that Natalie Merchant and Rob Buck from the band 10,000 Maniacs were involved with around the time that 10,000 Maniacs was beginning.  All of the songs were written by Albert Garzon.  Natalie contributed vocals to "Daffodils," "Mother's Family Ring," "Crumble Down," and "Bathroom Tile Dance," while Rob contributed guitar to "Rectangles," "Daffodils," "Mother's Family Ring," The Playground," Crumble Down," and "Bathroom Tile Dance."  The other tracks on the album ("les Cendriers" and "Defense Rap Trip") included no future Maniacs.  The song "les Cendriers," which translates from French as "ashtrays" is the only reference to the name of the makeshift band. Robert Norman "Rob" Buck (August 1, 1958 – December 19, 2000) was a founding member and guitarist of the American alternative rock band 10,000 Maniacs from 1981 until his death from liver disease in 2000.  Some of his compositions with Natalie Merchant are among the most popular songs recorded by 10,000 Maniacs, including "What's the Matter Here", "Hey Jack Kerouac", "You Happy Puppet" and "These Are Days". Tigerlily is an album written, produced, and performed by Natalie Merchant, released on June 20, 1995 (see 1995 in music).  It is her first solo album after splitting from the 10,000 Maniacs.  Some reviews of the album praised Merchant's confessional writing style while others criticized the same for undue sentimentality. "Trouble Me" is a song by the American alternative rock group 10,000 Maniacs and the first single from their 1989 album "Blind Man's Zoo".  The single was co-written by the band's then-lead singer, Natalie Merchant, as dedication to her father, Anthony Merchant.  "Trouble Me" charted in the both United States and the United Kingdom, becoming a hit for the band.  A live version with lead vocalist Mary Ramsey was also included on their 2016 album "Playing Favorites". In My Tribe is an album by the American alternative rock band 10,000 Maniacs.  Released on July 27, 1987, It was their second major-label album and their first to achieve large-scale success.  John Lombardo, Natalie Merchant's songwriting partner on previous albums, left the band in 1986.  Merchant began collaborating with the other members of the band, most notably with Rob Buck. Natalie Anne Merchant (born October 26, 1963) is an American singer-songwriter and musician.  She joined the American alternative/folk rock band 10,000 Maniacs in 1981 and left it to begin her solo career in 1993.  She has since released seven studio albums. Moist is a Canadian rock band that originally formed in 1992.  It consists of David Usher as lead vocalist, Mark Makoway on lead guitars, Jonathan Gallivan on guitars, Kevin Young on keyboards, Francis Fillion on drums and Louis Lalancette on bass.  The band's original drummer Paul Wilcox left the band just before its hiatus in 2000, and original bassist Jeff Pearce departed shortly after its reestablishment in early 2014. "Candy Everybody Wants" is the second single by alternative rock group 10,000 Maniacs from their 1992 album "Our Time in Eden".  The song was written by Dennis Drew and Natalie Merchant, the band's keyboardist and lead singer respectively. " Rolling Stone" wrote that the song is about "the American appetite for televised sex and violence – and big business's willingness to satisfy that craving." Love Among the Ruins (1997) was the first album released by 10,000 Maniacs with their new lead singer, Mary Ramsey, after Natalie Merchant left in 1993.  The two singles from the album, "More Than This" and "Rainy Day", were not originally intended to be included on the album at all.  John Lombardo had just written "Rainy Day", which was deemed more radio friendly than the other songs, and the record company insisted that the band record a cover song for inclusion.  The band chose to credit the songs as group collaborations so that all members would receive equal royalties.  Ramsey and Lombardo shared the lyric writing.  Ramsey wrote the music to "All That Never Happens".  Lombardo wrote "Rainy Day", "Even with My Eyes Closed", "Big Star", "Shining Light" and "Across the Fields".  Lombardo shared a writing credit with Jerry Augustyniak on "Girl on a Train".  Rob Buck wrote "Love Among the Ruins", and Dennis Drew wrote "A Room For Everything".  A live version was also included on their 2016 album "Playing Favorites". Our Time in Eden is the fifth studio album by American alternative rock band 10,000 Maniacs.  It was released in 1992 on Elektra Records.  The release is 10,000 Maniacs' last studio album with the original lead singer, Natalie Merchant.  The album included her future replacement Mary Ramsey on violin and viola on such tracks as "Stockton Gala Days" and "How You've Grown".  Singles released from the album were "These Are Days", "Candy Everybody Wants" and "Few and Far Between".  The brass and woodwind section is covered by the J.B.'s, or James Brown's band.
