Where it leads
Manchester Post-Punk
Before the baggy trousers: basslines, empty space, and a city building its own outlets.
Seattle Grunge
Heavy riffs played by people raised on punk, recorded cheap in the Pacific Northwest and then sold worldwide.
Boston Alternative
College radio, cheap rehearsal rooms and loud guitars: the US underground's most literate, least glamorous engine room.
