The band released a 7-inch EP, three splits with Current, Embassy and Ordination of Aaron, and appeared in two compilations before disbanding. Science 1994, a compilation of Indian Summer's discography, was released in 2002 and Hidden Arithmetic, an entirely live album consisting of one live set and a live radio broadcast, was released in 2006, both on the Future Recordings label. AllMusic described them as "one of the more exciting and influential bands in a crop of underground acts that defined an obscure but inspired era of American emo."[2] Science 1994 has been named as the 37th best emo album by Rolling Stone.[3]

A compilation of their entire studio discography titled Giving Birth to Thunder was released by The Numero Group in 2019. Pitchfork named the release a "Best New Reissue" in September 2019.[4]
