Probably true but I hate all this post-rock shit

'Spiderland' isn't greatly recorded, probably because it's not actually recorded by Steve Albini, but Albini WISHED he had recorded it (he made such a statement public), and Albini-the-pundit gets lumped in with Slint-the-godfathers.
The recording does sound immensely better on vinyl, but viliande probably bought the vinyl. I remember viliande and I having extremely radical tastes (he loved stuff I hated, I hated stuff he loved, we both loved Guitar Wolf).

I have found the exact opposite to be true, though it took me a long time to fall in love with the album. Like literally a year or two.
It sounds best on vinyl. |

'Spiderland' - I was going to buy this. Everyone gushes about it. I won't bother now. Thanks. |

It was an online article saying that their are "hints" that the reunion could be fulltime. As we know with the Pixies who knows? |

And the reunion boots sounded really good, which is not always the case, as we know.

Slint is pretty cool. I have nothing really of value of to add to the conversation but one of the best compliments my band ever got was someone saying we reminded them of Slint, which I never understood at all, but whatever.

I had a few friends who listened to Slint, but haven't heard much about them lately, anyone know what is going on with them? |

Thanks, KoK. Kick ass video for sure.
They seem to be pretty motionless concert performers. But I don't hold that against them. They let the music speak for itself. I like that. I regret that I wasn't able to see them perform live.
Wasn't Broken Face at the Pitchfork festival? Did he happen to see Slint? If so, what did he think? |

No offense creamy but this is how you turn a lame ass thread into a kick ass thread.
