Quicksand “Slip”: 1993 In Music, Post-Hardcore Is Born
Walter Schreifels of Quicksand goes deep on their seminal and wildly influential 1993 album “Slip.” Schreifels reflects on the band’s transition from New York hardcore to a more experimental post-hardcore sound, influenced by everyone from Nirvana to My Bloody Valentine and the shoegaze movement.
He describes the recording process at Longview Farms, the challenges of writing lyrics, and the album’s themes of self-analysis and coming of age. The album’s lasting influence is resonant with Deftones and Rage Against the Machine.
