Post-rock

Slint is a Post-rock act. Their sound grew out of Steve Albini, Minutemen, Leonard Cohen, Neil Young and Nick Cave. Those roots explain a lot about how Slint arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Rodan, Polvo, Faraquet, The For Carnation and Don Caballero, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Come On Die Young, Aidan Moffat, Bosse-de-Nage, Don Caballero and Drive Like Jehu, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 52 connections around Slint, reaching back through Steve Albini and forward to Come On Die Young.
