Another of the years great comebacks: its the return of Sebadoh, the three piece led by Dinosaur Jr founding memeber Lou Barlow.
With no less than fourteen years since their last album, the Sebadoh are however sounding fresh as ever. So fans of grunge are recommended to get down to Lido this month to witness a rare live show by the band.
Sebadoh is an American indie rock band, currently signed with Joyful Noise Recordings. Formed in 1986 in Westfield, Massachusetts by Eric Gaffney and Dinosaur Jr bass player Lou Barlow. Along with such bands as Pavement and Guided by Voices, Sebadoh helped pioneer lo-fi music, a style of indie rock characterized by low-fidelity recording techniques, often on four-track machines.

The band’s early output, such as 1990’s Weed Forestin’ and 1991’s Sebadoh III, was typical of this style. After a 14-year recording hiatus, during which time members pursued other projects while occasionally touring as Sebadoh, the group returned with the Secret EP and a new full-length album titled Defend Yourself, which were both self-recorded.

Lead singer Lou Barlow says of the band’s resurrected sound, “We kept to ourselves during the recording & didn’t have much, if any, outside intervention. That, to my mind, makes it a true Sebadoh record & aligns the style of Defend Yourself with our early releases.”
