One of the main pioneers of the british post-punk scene,
Swell Maps was the main band of the
Godfrey Brothers, known as
Nikki Sudden and
Epic Soundtracks, both prominent figures of their time.
A Trip To Marineville represents one of their best efforts, containing most of the ideas that were later influential for some of the most experimental post-punk that came later, due to its constants dwellings in noise, punk rock and free improvisation. Excellent album which seamlessly combines energetic punk with noise ballads, which later inspired bands with the caliber of
Sonic Youth.
