This second Galaxie 500 LP (from 1989) tends to be regarded as the band's finest, and a decade on it sure sounds like a formidable piece of work. Using a similarly slowed down, thinned out combination of guitar strum and plodding drums the band somehow continue to forge a unique sound that's helped terraform the subsequent indie rock landscape. Bands like Low owe a great deal to this trio's proto-slow core concoctions, and their songwriting never sounded better than on this LP, with great songs like 'Blue Thunder', 'Strange' and 'Tell Me' all helping cement the group's cosmically charged sound.
