Unwound
THE most underrated band of the 90s and yeah we'll fight about it. Started as a hardcore band in Olympia, spent a decade getting weirder and better and more ambitious until they made Leaves Turn Inside You, a double album so good it should be illegal that more people don't know about it. Atmospheric, crushing, beautiful, heavy. If you sleep on Unwound you are missing out on something truly special.
People
Unwound's captain. Steered that band from raw Olympia hardcore all the way to the atmospheric grandeur of Leaves Turn Inside You without ever losing the plot. Ten years of constant evolution and every step forward was the right one.
Unwound's bassist from day one to the bitter end. Grew with the band through every phase, from the early punk rippers to the sprawling beauty of their final records. Passed away in 2020, a devastating loss to anyone who loved that band.
Unwound's drummer and one of the most powerful players in 90s indie rock. Hit hard, played smart, and evolved right alongside Trosper and Rumsey through a decade of relentless reinvention. Also plays in Cobirds Unite.
