Minutemen: Double Nickels on the Dime


A great album of short, quick songs covering so many genres. This is an album people should be familiar with. Formed in 1985, broken up in 1989 due to the death of guitarist D. Boon, Minutemen are often regarded as the pioneers of alternative music. Given the band insists that their name does not reflect their song lengths, most songs come out to around two minutes. The double album is packed with so many great songs to enjoy.
