Way to go Couch Flambeau!

Congrats to Milwaukee's own Couch Flambeau for being named to Spin magazine's top 8 "essentials" for the precursor of grunge, which Spin refers to as Pigf--k. The 1985 Flambeau album The Day the Music Died made the list, along with albums by Scratch Acid, Killdozer, Sonic Youth, the Butthole Surfers and Big Black. See this week's '80s at 8:30 playlist for the tracks I played from The Day the Music Died. Article is in the December issue of Spin.
