Slint

ARTIST MAINARTIST INFORELATED ARTISTSLINKSREVIEWS

Though largely overlooked during their relatively brief lifespan, Slint grew to become one of the most influential and far-reaching bands to emerge from the American underground rock community of the 1980s; innovative and iconoclastic, the group's deft, extremist manipulations of volume, tempo, and structure cast them as clear progenitors of the post-rock movement which blossomed during the following decade. Whatever the extent of Slint's own influence, the group grew out of Louisville, Kentucky's legendary Squirrel Bait, another seminal band which languished in r...[more]

VINYL FORMAT. Transcendent music that's both complicated and wholly understandable. Seminal and often imitated.
