#487: Spanaway by Seaweed

If you've listened to this podcast long enough, you know that we are not always in agreement about what works and doesn't work for us on various albums. One of the earliest disagreements was back in Season One when we checked out the 1993 album Four by Seaweed. Thanks to a recent listener suggested poll on our Patreon site, we're back ten years later to check out the 1995 follow-up Spanaway, the band's only release on the Hollywood Records label. While the band faced the tired "sell-out" label for signing to a major, in reality, the band stayed close to what they did well - a bombastic combo of East Coast post-hardcore and PacWest grunge, with some extra nuance thanks to the skilled fingers of Andy Wallace behind the mixing board, as well as guest visits in the drum throne by Barrett Martin (of Screaming Trees) and Matt Cameron (of Soundgarden). The question remains - has anything changed in our diverging opinions? Songs In This Episode Intro - Start With18:45 - Magic Mountainman22:53 - Assistant (To The Manager)31:59 - Free Drug ZoneOutro - Last Humans Support the podcast, join the DMO UNION at Patreon.Listen to the episode archive at DigMeOutPodcast.com.  This is a public episode.
