SEAWEED

There are very few bands that stick with you while you grow up and explore different genres of music, and venture the many phases in which adolescence uncomfortably guides you through. But these few that remain, the ones you take hold of, and last that test of time, are priceless, and no matter what flavor of the month comes along they will remain a part of your steady musical diet. I was introduced to Seaweed in the early 90's (my best guess would be 1994-1995, during my obsession with all that was Sub Pop) and I heard something different, and special. I still don't know what it is... maybe the fact that it's raw, and has a skate punk rock feel to it, but remains catchy with pop hooks. Whatever it was, I remained excited on this band. And because of this I decided to compile the collection of LP's I have, and make them available to whoever may come across this and perhaps any loyal readers/lurkers. Anyone out there?

So if you've never heard of Seaweed, here's your introduction to a band worth taking hold of, and gripping tightly throughout all musical storms that may amuse your life. Enjoy!

SEAWEED (band)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The band Seaweed was a group active throughout the 1990s. They hailed from Tacoma, Washington. In their early days Seaweed was signed to Sub Pop and later released albums on Hollywood Records and Merge Records. Seaweed's contemporaries during the time of their existence included Mudhoney, Samiam, Jawbreaker and tourmates Superchunk and Quicksand. The band toured extensively in the United States as well as overseas. They played in Brazil with Garage Fuzz in various cities (São Paulo, Belo HOrizonte, Rio de Janeiro, Curitiba, Londrina, etc). The band released many albums and several singles during their career. They were well-known for their cover of Fleetwood Mac's Go Your Own Way, which appeared in the movie Clerks. In 2006, "Losing Skin" appeared on the soundtrack for the video game NHL 2K7
