STARS OF THE LID – GRAVITATIONAL PULL VS. THE DESIRE FOR AN AQUATIC

Austin-based Stars Of The Lid heralded a new strain of the American underground in the mid-’90s. The duo’s second album, Gravitational Pull vs. The Desire For An Aquatic Life, features ambient soundscapes, drone guitars and effects-treated classical instruments, and there is no better example of modern minimalism than this.
