Unwound - Future of What

Their third album in as many years, 1995's The Future of What is an unrelenting, constructivist masterstroke. The Olympia trio's signature sound- grinding bass, syncopated drums, and fragmented guitar over measured yelps- ratchets past the thread into a strippedout metallic slurry. Equal parts noise and adrenaline, the album opens with a simple question: "Where's your energy?" It's been 25 years and we're still searching for the answer.
