Seminal is a word often bandied about in describing certain influential groups and their works. And sadly, I must use the hackneyed word in an attempt to convey the underrated greatness that was Galaxie 500. Like the Velvet Underground before them, Galaxie 500 didn't have a large contemporary audience, but they had a profound effect on almost everyone who listened to them. And just as the Velvet Underground are credited as the prodigious founders of a new movement in rock and roll, the same can be said of Galaxie 500.

Maybe, just maybe, if we're lucky, 20 years from now there will be a Galaxie 500 reunion concert (if the VU can do it, so can they, damn it!). Until then we have a legacy of three flawless albums to get us through.

When Galaxie 500 was first formed, Damon Krukowski didn't own a drum kit. So he borrowed one from his Harvard roommate at the time, Conan O'Brien, who'd bought a kit but had recently given up playing it. This drum kit can be heard on many of Galaxie 500's early recordings.

Dean was playing some Galaxie songs on the Luna farewell tour.
The rest of them do this now.
