Dis - Ed Was Solace 7'' (Twelve Inch, 1992)

Rating: 7.5 cleveland steamers out of 10

Dis (or Dis-) was one of those mid-nineties math rock bands that seemed to pop up everywhere all at once, all seemingly in homage to the almighty Slint.  Not that there is anything wrong with that, we could use more bands these days that sound like Slint IMO.  They never generated the buzz of June of 44 or Dianogah or some of those cats, but they were just as good - both sides of this record are great.  I might even prefer the slow melter on the b-side called "Girl Song."  This record was engineered by Steve Albini for those that care about such things.
