<description>&lt;p&gt;This week we're discussing every album by Squirrel Bait. Formed in Louisville in the early 80s, Squirrel Bait was a huge influence on what would eventually become emo. While their sound is far closer to Washington DC emo-core bands like Rites of Spring and Embrace, they made a significant impact within their short existence.

This week we're discussing every album by Squirrel Bait. Formed in Louisville in the early 80s, Squirrel Bait was a huge influence on what would eventually become emo. While their sound is far closer to Washington DC emo-core bands like Rites of Spring and Embrace, they made a significant impact within their short existence. Members of Squirrel Bait later went on to form Slint, Bastro, and Gastr Del Sol, among others. [I realize at one point I accidentally say "Alex MacKaye" instead of "Alec." I'm sure there are other errors in this video, but that's the only one driving me crazy.] Intro 00:00 Who Is Squirrel Bait? 2:21 "Squirrelbait Youth" 5:54 The First Demo 7:19 The Legend of Britt Walford 7:58 The Second Demo 11:27 How They Got Signed 14:38 Self-titled EP 19:56 Skag Heaven 24:54 How They Broke Up 30:42 What the Members Went on to Do 35:03 Closing Thoughts/Outro 37:04 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Join the Patreon, it rules: https://www.patreon.com/everyalbumever Mike's music: Pander Monkey on Bandcamp, Spotify, Apple, Mike on Instagram @pandermonkey Tom on Instagram @tomosmansounds Tom Osman's stuff: Music on Spotify, Apple, Website Podcast on Spotify, YouTube ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
