BirchHOST
Yeah.
BirchHOST
Also other people, I should just mention smog, microphones, sparkle horse, Sebado, low Arab strap, cat power, rivulets.
BirchHOST
Like during that time, there was a huge boom, boom of this lo-fi do it yourself, folk music that was hearkening back to Appalachian music, original music, kind of warm tape recordings, which is funny because, you know, we were just talking about Britney Spears, the shiny new pop thing.
BirchHOST
I think that was the rejection for...
Mark DavisHOST
What's your band or two of your bands that you feel are only known for a big song that you run so much deeper with and you're like, people just don't get it? Like I think of like examples like
Seth FordHOST
Sebado.
Seth FordHOST
No, first one is.
Seth FordHOST
I'm sorry.
Mark DavisHOST
Not Sebado.
Mark DavisHOST
Pavement.
Mark DavisHOST
No.
Joey CarboGUEST
but maybe it was it's probably early influences where I liked a lot of things that were intentionally fucked up like Oh, I just had the example, and then I didn't have it anymore.
Joey CarboGUEST
Oh, Sebado and Centrado, those were Lou Barlow.
Joey CarboGUEST
He's in Dinosaur Jr.
Joey CarboGUEST
Okay.
Joey CarboGUEST
Okay, so he made these four-track tapes.
Joey CarboGUEST
Him and I think it was Jason Lowenstein was involved even back then, but then they were in a band.
Joey CarboGUEST
Sebado became a rock band later, and they had that hit song on the kids' movie.
Joey CarboGUEST
You know it if you watch the kids movie or whatever.
Owen SweeneyGUEST
It's just brilliant.
Owen SweeneyGUEST
And there's two singers and the bass player Lou Barlow went off and formed Sebado and stuff.
Owen SweeneyGUEST
I'm not going to deep dive too much.
Owen SweeneyGUEST
Back in the day, he sings two of the tracks as he often does on some of their early records.
Page HamiltonGUEST
I saw the Swans.
Page HamiltonGUEST
I saw Lou Barlow's first show with Sebado.
Page HamiltonGUEST
I saw Lemonheads.
Page HamiltonGUEST
I saw Das Damen Skunk.
Lars MurrayHOST
The Dolly tributes continued to roll in from far and wide corners of the music world, including one of the icons of the OG lo-fi, lo-fi indie rock.
Lars MurrayHOST
One of my favorite tributes came from what I'd consider an unlikely source, Lou Barlow of Sebado and Dinosaur Jr., who encountered Dolly's 1970s cassette recorder, which she used to record ideas and demos, at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Lars MurrayHOST
In a Facebook post, Lou mused on the connection between his own lo-fi cassette-driven creative process and Dolly's, despite a stylistic gulf just about as wide as you can get.
Lars MurrayHOST
There's a link in the show notes and more on Lou in a minute.
SkipGUEST
It's so nice.
SkipGUEST
It reminds me a lot of Sebadoh, um, which is the Dino Jr. spinoff band, bass player, uh, Barlow from-
TylerHOST
Never heard of that band
SkipGUEST
... uh, "Pike Hall" really has a Sebadoh vibe.
SkipGUEST
Oh.
SkipGUEST
Uh, Jeff, if you like-
TylerHOST
Never heard of that
SkipGUEST
... "Pike Hall," go listen to the, the early Sebadoh stuff.
Juliet HarrisHOST
Mm.
Ed BiggsHOST
The indie heroes Sebadoh get to number 38 with Harmacy, which seems like a really good performance actually.
Ed BiggsHOST
[laughs]
Juliet HarrisHOST
That's great actually.
Jason StollGUEST
Uh, so it was in a band, uh, called Playhouse.
Jason StollGUEST
Um, they're like sort of an indie in Sebado, Dinosaur Junior influenced, um, uh, American-style influence, indie rock band.
Jason StollGUEST
I joined as the last bass player.
David EastaughHOST
Right.
BenPANELIST
Yeah.
BirchHOST
Uh, should we kick Sebadoh out for Transmissions? [laughs]
BenPANELIST
No. H-
BirchHOST
