Archers of Loaf
This Chapel Hill band featuring singer/guitarist Eric Bachmann, guitarist Eric Johnson, bassist Matt Gentling, and drummer Mark Price released a landmark ‘90s indie-rock album with its 1993 debut, Icky Mettle. Not only was the album unparalleled in its raw energy and hearty melodies, but songs like “Wrong” and “Web in Front” still stand up today. Though the college rock heroes called it quits in 1998, they recently reunited for a few performances thus prompting Merge Records to reissue their back catalog. Their melody/noise dynamic is especially explosive on vinyl.
