GENRE : alternative punk, slowcore, alternative rock, shoegaze, Australia
RECORD LABEL : Fellaheen Records
Sandpit are a band that you've probably never heard of. They're an Australian alternative rock trio that were mainly active between 1994-1998. This is the only album of theirs I've listened to, and it's really damn good. They instantly brought to mind bands like Sonic Youth, Codeine, Dinosaur Jr and Red House Painters. They have that unmistakable 90's shoegaze thing to them too.
Sandpit play slow, raw, broody alt-punk with weird-ass guitar chords in weird-ass tunings, which gets shockingly loud and heavy at times. If (like me) you're into that kind of thing, you should definitely check them out.
