		It probably seems fairer to suggest that Galaxie 500 were on the front lines of having to explain to people that a down tempo sound still qualified as a rock performance.

		But Galaxie 500 were always markedly set apart from their peers, enjoying (one imagines) the sort of critical insulation brought by a timeless sound and largely posthumous discovery.
		But as with the Velvets, to saddle Galaxie 500 with generous comparisons is unnecessary, and only serves to diminish their rare achievements, and undercut the singular impact they've wrought upon independent music.
		The nearly-nine-minute live suite, however, is quintessential Galaxie, showing all shades of the group, from ragtag pop troubadours, to cogitating slowcore shamans, to towering guitar rock demigods.

		When I first read about Galaxie 500, I could tell they were a musical missing link for me- creating a bridge between standard indie-pop fair and beautifully woven pyschedelia, all the while remaining simply and truly romantic.

		Although I was pretty much listening to crap when Galaxie 500 were in their prime, I'm glad to discover them now and sad that they were virtually overlooked in their time.
