The Vault: Shudder To Think Is Still On The Brain
Last week’s Dismemberment Plan live-show MP3s once again got us all mushy on the ’90s D.C.-rock scene, but really: It doesn’t take much to get us to prattling on and on about how great it was back then, and we’re about two more Dischord posts away from being told never to post a Clinton-era indie-rock song again. But while we can still get away with it, we’ll gladly make the case that that art-pop-rockers Shudder To Think was one of the most underrated artists from that time, despite the fact that that band scored a big-label deal and opening for the likes of the Smashing Pumpkins; one of the greatest joys of seeing them live was watching non-fans gawk at singer Craig Wedren’s improbably high-pitched voice, which was put to especially good use on the tracks below:
