As Seen from Above is an album by the American band Dianogah, released in 1997. [4]
The Chicago Reader thought that the "trio’s surefooted maneuvers through intricate arrangements lead it down the path taken by guitar bands like the Minutemen, Slovenly, Slint, and Silkworm ... Dianogah’s revisitations aren’t half bad–but neither are they half as good as the originals." [5]
AllMusic wrote that "Jason Harvey and Jay Ryan's dexterous bass work interweaves perfectly with Kip McCabe's precision drumming almost as if the three instruments were one." [2]
Material Issue was an American power pop trio from Chicago, Illinois. The band's trademark is pop songs with themes of love and heartbreak. A number of their song titles used girls' first names.
