Additional Details ------------------------------ Product description: Sometimes people exist in a certain place and at a certain time for a reason. Slates is a punk band from Edmonton, Alberta; not punk like leather/tattoos/screaming/one minute songs and junk. Just punk. Edmonton is a cold, industrial city where money often dominates little things like art, the environment, and pride. Slates have to exist in Edmonton. They couldnt exist without these surroundings, and the city needs somebody to document it and say when its right or wrong. The two go together perfectly. With two LPs and three 7-inches under their belt, TAIGA presents brand new material recorded with engineer and producer Steve Albini (Nirvana, The Stooges, Jawbreaker, Neurosis) at Electric Audio.
