What can we say? This is the granddaddy of the label. Such Sweet Thunder were one of the leading bands in the early 90’s Nebraska rock scene. This CD contained both the album “Redneck”, and their previous year’s release, “Burning Ditches.” Basically they were a “Hüsker Dü meets early REM” type of band, that developed into a basic hard rock outfit. Distinctly Great Plains in sound, this CD paved the way for many local bands to put out CDs of their own. All in all, a big victory.
