Where it leads
Chicago Post-Rock
Rock instruments played like studio tools — dub space, jazz chords, tape edits, vibraphone where the vocal should be.
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.
