Organizers of the All Tomorrow's Parties festival announced that Slint are now confirmed as part of their “Don’t Look Back” series. It was announced that the band will be performing their genre-defining album Spiderland in its entirety in both Europe and the US.
Slint have been credited with spawning the post-rock movement of the 90’s with their innovative take on song structure and their sparse, yet haunting lyrics. Spiderland release in 1991 was their second and final album.
Shortly after its release (Spiderland), the band broke up due to internal differences, and, supposedly, mental breakdowns brought on by the recording sessions of the album. They apparently did not tour in support of the album.
