While Capsize 7 was part of the same 1990s Chapel Hill, North Carolina indie rock boom that birthed Archers of Loaf, Superchunk, and Polvo, they didn't stick around long enough to garner their share of the hype. Capsize 7 blended Archers's fractured power-pop and Polvo's baroque guitar shapes with Slint's churning rawness, creating prickly, streamlined melodies that simmered diabolically, then surged into massive sing-along choruses. .
