I've been re-listening to their albums all summer long.They're so underrated it hurts.My favourites are the same as Rob Instigator.I can't stop listening to 'Challenge for a Civilized Society' these days.I was wondering what Justin Trosper has been up to , does anyone know ? I haven't heard about him in something like 3 or 4 years (I'm just having a growing crush on him these days).Also I wanted to ask :
I've heard about an 'Unwound 1991-2091' t-shirt but have never seen an actual one.Was that made up ?
Do the other Unwound related bands sound like them (the 'Young Ginns', 'The Replikants', 'Versus ') ?
I love the way their sound or even Justin trosper's voice evolved ..I mean, some of their first songs really sounded like Rites of Spring ('Warmth Prospect' or 'You Bite My Tongue' especially) and their last album sounded a bit like Mogwai.I just think it's a shame they never got the 'commercial' (for want of a better word) success or recognition they deserved.I just made myself a compilation cd of their songs the other day, it included the followings:
Petals like Bricks
Valentine Card
Sonata for Loudspeakers
For your entertainment
Terminus (that's probably my favourite of theirs along with 'Valentine Card')
Lifetime Achievement Award
The World is Flat
Fingertips
LD Fifty
Seen Not Heard
Torch Song
Dragnalus
Mile me Deaf
Arboretum
Fiction Friction
Abstraktions
Hexenzscene
Data
Lying at Best

You Bite my Tongue
Off This Century
