1990: "Log", Tall Dwarfs

Chris Knox' Tall Dwarfs (sic) were pioneers of the lo fi movement but still retained the pop enthusiasm that characterized their Flying Nun label mates. Many of their songs eschew percussion in favor of "found" sounds and non-traditional instrumentation, as "Log" epitomizes. 1990's Weeville was the first proper Tall Dwarfs album but, again, like many other Flying Nun bands they had released a wealth of singles throughout the prior decade.
