The 13th Floor (New Zealand)

Quicksand are part of a moment in Punk Rock history when a(nother) sound was synthesised, as US hardcore, grunge and post-punk collided in the early 1990s, out of it came an anxious, energised and tuneful genre (Fugazi, Helmet, Therapy?)

Quicksand sits on an uneasy perch when evaluating music from the ‘90s. Too angular to be grunge but too tuneful to be purely hardcore, Quicksand throws it lot in with other hard-yet-unable-to-pigeonhole acts such as Jawbox, Therapy? and Helmet.

The Texas rockers in Narrow Head were ripping the stage up as we arrived. The band's guitar heavy sound [sporting three guitarists in their ranks!] seemed to win over the legion of Quicksand disciples in attendance.

Quicksand was an early adopter of post-hardcore in the grunge soaked early 90’s, and their tone reflects it.

The group epitomised the hotbed of talent that Revelation Records boasted in the 90s, sharing a label with (relatively) likeminded outfits such as Sensefield, Shades Apart and Texas Is The Reason.
