GALAXIE 500Though criminally overlooked in their own lifetime, Galaxie 500 later emerged as one
of the pivotal underground groups of the post-punk era; dreamy and enigmatic,
their minimalist dirges presaged the rise of both the shoegaze and slowcore
movements of the 1990s. The group formed in Boston, Massachusetts
in 1986 and comprised vocalist/guitarist Dean Wareham (a transplanted
New Zealand native), and bassist Naomi Yang
and drummer Damon Krukowski, longtime friends

Galaxie 500's debut doesn't merely live up to the sweet promise of the band's
debut single "Tugboat," Today's final song, but almost without trying
becomes its own gently powerful touchstone. While the influences are
clear -- third album Velvet Underground, early non-dance New Order,
psychedelic haze and fuzz thanks to the reverb Kramer piled on
as producer -- the resulting brew easily stands on its own...(AllMusic)
