Weevil

Back in the early 90s there were a wave of bands including New Order, My Bloody Valentine, Moonshake, Bark Psychosis and Seefeel, who embodied true experimentation within their indie guitar sound. mixing effected guitars, samples, beats and dreamy vocals to produce anything from intense soundscapes to danceable pop, this was music with it?s ears listening to the future. But since then so much of the UK guitar based music scene has generally been backward looking rather than focussing on what you can still do with guitars, drums and bass when messed with and mixed with electronics - it was an exciting time to be just discovering music but that potential wasn't really realised. There were a few notable exceptions (sfa being one) but there was no forward looking scene to talk of through the latter half of the 90s...in this new millenium some breathtaking bands have fought to be different. Embrace the new noise, enjoy the remixers on this album.
