1992-2001 by Acetone

2017 | Pop | Psychedelic

Between 1993 and 2001 the trio released two LPs and an EP on Vernon Yard-a Virgin subsidiary-and two LPs on Vapour, the L.A.-based label founded by Neil Young and manager Elliott Roberts. In that span, they were selected to tour with Oasis, Mazy Star, The Verve, and Spiritualized. Against a rising tide of post-Nirvana grunge and slipshod indie rock, Acetone tapped into a timeless Southern California groove by fusing elements of psychedelia, surf, and country. They rehearsed endlessly in an empty bedroom in northeast Los Angeles, recording hours of music onto cassettes that were subsequently stuffed into shoeboxes and left in a shed behind the drummer's house. Those tapes are being released for the first time in this anthology, which also includes highlights from Acetone's official releases. Taken together, the songs form a companion soundtrack to Sam Sweet's book, which maps the character of Los Angeles as a place through the lens of these three unique characters bonded by music.
