Wreck

Wreck fue una banda de rock indie formada en Milwaukee, Wisconsin en 1988, y posteriormente con base en Chicago. Tras lanzar tres álbumes, la banda se separó a mediados de los años 1990, con el cantante/guitarrista Dean Schlabowske fundando posteriormente The Waco Brothers. History The band was formed in Milwaukee in 1988, and comprised Dean Schlabowske (later of The Waco Brothers) on electric guitar and vocals, Bart Flores on drums, and Keith Brammer (from Die Kreuzen and Boy Dirt Car) on bass guitar. The band's first release was a self-titled EP on the Play It Again Sam label in 1989, in association with Wax Trax!, with Steve Albini producing. The Milwaukee Journal'''s Thor Christensen described the EP: "Las guitarras suenan como baterías, las baterías suenan como ametralladoras, y el vocalista Schlabowske suena como si acabara de tragar napalm". Debut album Soul Train followed in 1990, also produced by Albini, and described by Allmusic as "canciones abstractas y difíciles...el trabajo de una banda que no tenía deseo de comprometer su visión creativa". The band released another six songs on the House of Boris 12” EP in 1991, by which time Kurt Moore (The Won't, Primasonic) had joined on bass guitar. The band recorded a second album for Wax Trax! (Your Monkey's on Fire), but it remained unreleased apart from advance cassette copies. The band re-recorded it as El Mundo De Los Niños, with production from Jon Langford of The Mekons, whom Schlabowske then joined in The Waco Brothers.
