Where it leads

Chicago Post-Rock

Rock instruments played like studio tools — dub space, jazz chords, tape edits, vibraphone where the vocal should be.

→

London Post-Punk

Punk's wreckage rebuilt with dub space, art-school nerve and cheap studios — London, 1977 to 1982.

→

The Windmill Scene

One Brixton pub stage where British guitar music got strange again.
