#scottspillane — Public Fediverse posts

Following a many-month investment in #NeutralMilkHotel’s work, I’m diving deeper into the Elephant 6 collective. First up was #TheGerbils, mainly because I love #ScottSpillane.

‘The Battle of Electricity’ has a little bit of everything I like about 00s indie rock. Instrumental parallels to Aeroplane Over The Sea. The second record reminded me a lot of groups that would follow such as #TheWeakerthans.

I’ll revisit both of these records for sure.

Jeff Mangum, Julian Koster and Scott Spillane play three songs at the 40 Watt Club on New Year's Eve, the last time these guys would share a stage for about ten years.
