Yeah, I was aware of that. But not an album. I think Dreamy was later picked up by Sub Pop as a reissue, but it was first on K records.

batreleaser 04.03.2008 03:36 PM

dino jr is on the website so i assume they did a split or something, but yeah i dont consider them subpop at all, i just said them cuz everyone else is and i dont like that many sub pop bands.

i love the vaselines though and i forgot them.

gmku 04.03.2008 03:36 PM

Screaming Trees was also not on Sub Pop except for a single. They were SST.

marleypumpkin 04.03.2008 03:49 PM

Well, I think of the bands who only released singles w/ Sub Pop in this manner, Sub Pop is known for their Singles Club compilations. So in a manner of speaking, those bands/artists are as much of Sub Pop as anyone who released a full album. But that's just me.

Rob Instigator 04.03.2008 04:01 PM

sub pop also bougth out a lot of indie distributors, so that may be why they carry dinosaur in their catalog

That would make Fugazi a Sub Pop band too then. Yes, they had a Sub Pop single.

In that regard, let me then include: Poster Children (an awesomely underrated band from the Midwest).

Also, the Fluid had an LP on Sub Pop and a single or two. I don't have their records anymore--ditched them during an anti-grunge phase. But I used to like them. They were from Denver.

Pookie 04.03.2008 04:06 PM

At one point I would have listened to just about any Sub Pop band. None of them do much for me these days.

Tad should have been bigger though. They did some great stuff.

gmku 04.03.2008 04:07 PM

I think the lead singer was over 35 and wore jeans, though.

If he hadn't they would have been bigger.

it's amazing to me that so many of you included wolf eyes.

gmku 04.03.2008 04:12 PM

Grunge got old real fast, didn't it?

Phlegmscope 04.03.2008 04:15 PM

godheadSilo are pretty fucking brilliant.

Many thanks for the info gmku! I'm trying to remember which single Fugazi had on Sub Pop...

Anyways, I'm definitely going to look into those other groups.

gmku 04.03.2008 04:23 PM

I think it was the "+3" part of Repeater+3. The last three songs on that CD. Forget their names now. I have the single on Dischord, but Sub Pop put out an identical pressing, same pic sleeve art and everything, at the same time. Might have been a Single of the Month thing.
