I feel weird about music that seemed like ‘the future’ to me for so long actually being very very old and in the past.

And I still tend to think of Slint as young kids but I guess they were in their 20s even then.

Fair enough. I guess im getting ‘album x will be x years old’ fatigue.

That’s a great doc. It’s a shame it didn’t get a wider release beyond the Spiderland reissue and a coupla screenings because it’s a really interesting story, even for people with no interest in Slint / Louisville post-hardcore

When I fancy a Slint fix it’s very hard to look beyond Spiderland or the EP. Kind of neglect Tweez, even though I do like it.

That gig at Koko was brilliant.

Came out the year I was born so sounds about right aye

They were amazing at Albert Hall a few years back. Even if it was the coldest gig I’ve ever been to.

Ah the Tweez EP before their one and only album Spiderland

The Slint EP is still my favourite thing.

However, was just reading about it and it was recorded around the same time it seems. If that’s true is there a chance someone could master Tweez again so it doesn’t sound like it was recorded in a tin can? The sound quality on the EP is blinding.

Quite like the idea of covering Nevermind in the style of Spiderland
