(1994 – 2000)

June of 44 was an American rock band which was formed in 1994 from ex-members of Rodan, Lungfish, Codeine and Hoover (Sean Meadows had yet to participate in the Lungfish music band by 1994; his first album with them was actually in 1996). Clearly influenced by Slint, the band’s music is often described as post-rock. June of 44 released their work on Quarterstick Records with the exception of Fish 6.

June of 44 split up in 2000.

Take Don Cab, Faraquet, Helmet, blend nicely on a "Shipping News" mode and sprinkle some Chevrueil toward the end .... serve chilled and you are guaranteed to please. I'm happy these guys finally made their way into my iTunes, since I've come to like almost all their work. They wound up with a tag of "Math Rock", which I would not dismiss but also place almost diametrically opposite a "Don Cab" or more conventional group. They remind me of Faraquet because it has the same complexity, talent and style--easily placed in this category, too--but really bring something quite different to the table.

I just bought "Engine takes to the water" on Vinyl. The last record which was missing in my library. I spent 30 Euro but it's worth every cent. All time classic. Awesome band.

There we go Yikko! Watched the movie months ago and was so nice to see it, and it fit perfectly in that house! (Btw, this Philip Dick's novel is amazingly cool). Samanthacat, I wish the same...

I agree. June of 44's music is, on the whole, more interesting than Slint's.

this is just my opinion, but i like four great points better than spiderland. they're both great though, and slint definately gets some points for doing it earlier.
