Being the 1980s-90s indie rock nerds that we are, the April 15th deluxe vinyl box set reissue of Slint's 1991 post-rock masterpiece Spiderland was a big honking deal around The Way Out household. A big, big deal. It was a no-brainer that we were going to do a Slint themed broadcast this week. We set out to explore the Slint Family Tree, though only partially succeeded due to the 1-hour time limit. There was a lot of music we didn't get a chance to play: Evergreen, Dead Child, Shipping News, Royal Trux, The Breeders, Gastr del Sol, Sally Timms, Matmos, and the brand-new Watter. We should probably return and do a Part 2 sometime in the coming months...
