It was 2001 when I first heard Beat Happening. It wasn't a love that rushed into my heart right away, but I'm told relationships take time. Soon, a friend made me a tape of the band that influenced my Nirvana and Fugazi crushes as a child, and then Beat Happening filled a void no substance or person could fill.
Albums were hard to find, but I had my dubbed cassettes. And every now and then I'd stumble across a 7" among the masses. By the way-- if you ever come across one, pick it up quick, because they've been out of print for almost half a decade! You'll either love or hate it; there is no in-between. Well, that seems to be the consensus, but I can't help shaking my hips when they are playing on my stereo.
And out now, to fill the void in your life, is a compilation of songs recorded between 1984 and 2000-- Music to Climb the Apple Tree By. Originators of the D.I.Y. movement, Beat Happening is a staple band to have in your record collection. Not only can you climb the apple tree to their minimalist jams, but it's also perfect for drinking hot chocolate or dancing at a zombie masquerade. Beat Happening resides on the county line road that divides all the different indie subcultures. It is music to impress no one; simply there to enjoy while you gain your own personal power and freedom.
