      The guitars they're playing are made by G&L Musical Instruments, a company formed by Leo Fender, the creator of Fender guitars.

    Definitivamente Robert Poss sí sabe para qué es una guitarra eléctrica.
    Se puede rastrear acá la influencia de Rhys Chatham/Glenn Branca/Arto Lindsay.
    Qué grupazo.

    I guess the guitar-plant would have been G&L's? Leo Fender was a huge fan of BofS's.
    My all-time fave track of them is Hard Light - I can play that five times in a row when I feel like it.

    Amazing song, as much a precursor of the post-rock movement of the 1990s as anything of its time. The Susans' music might be heavy and visceral, but its flowing nature reminds me a lot of Roxy's masterwork "The Thrill of it All".
    The short solos, too, add to the song a great deal, whilst the idiosyncratic, "androgynous" character of both Poss and Stenger as vocalists fits the material well but is not likely to appeal to most listeners.

    Yes, that really is Monument Valley.

    @fortyeightdeadguys only Page played with Glenn with any regularity (though I think at least one of the Susans played on Symphony no 13 in London)- most of them were a lot closer to Rhys Chatham and performed with him. Same general influences, from an intellectual standpoint, but specifically from Rhys and not Glenn (Sonic Youth would be the exact opposite).

    Is the live footage in this clip from the I-Beam in San Francisco 1989? If so, I was there.

    Actually Chatham not Branca, and labelmates/contemporaries to Sonic Youth but not influenced by them....

    i was hoping that Zwan would do something like this, as far as layering goes, since they had 3 guitarists also...but i guess you can't cover that much ground when your band only exists for 2 years. i wish i had an SC-1...

    • @hamupinhere

      Wow, that's a name I haven't heard uttered in years (Zwan), and trust me when I say that the irony is not lost on me that I'm replying to a 9 year old comment.
      I remember back in like 2001, one of my friends (a Billy Corgan fanatic) was hailing them as the next big thing. I suppose the subsequent Smashing Pumpkins reunion--or depending on one's definition of a "reunion", that is--ensured that Zwan would end up a footnote.

      61k views and you are first one to bring up a reference to a guy who makes music for persons who know precisely how much Sudafed they can get for a stolen catalytic converter.
