A Trip to Marineville

by Swell Maps

Overview

Swell Maps' debut album was a scattershot affair, ranging from blistering three-chord punk to free-form noise experiments, that was intriguing, yet frequently incoherent. [The album's 1989 Mute reissue included eight bonus tracks, but its 2004 Secretly Canadian version only had four.] ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
