It isn't often that I find connections between my professional life and my personal interests (music especially). I work in the land of The High School Jonas Montanas Musical. It's a far cry from what I tend to prefer.That is why I was so excited to discover this article about a new children's book based on a song from one of the best independent albums ever. Good Morning Captain is the closing track to Slint's most notable album Spiderland and now the premise of a children's book.
Spiderland laid the ground work for many art rock acts to follow in nineties. Their minimal sounding production and melodically slow builds to bombastic endings strongly influenced acts like Mogwai, Godspeed You Black Emperor, and Pelican.Awesome!
