[edit] Rewrite
For the record, I'm currently rewriting the article here, as I previously did for Doolittle and Surfer Rosa. CloudNine 09:01, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
- I've copied over all the work from my userspace, so further development will take place in the article from now on. CloudNine (talk) 14:32, 19 January 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Well sourced article this
It seems that the WikiProject on Alternative Rock does its job effectively... the problem is, though, that its scope is fairly limited to just certain types of music...--h i s s p a c e r e s e a r c h 17:40, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
[edit] GA Review
This review is transcluded from Talk:Double Nickels on the Dime/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.
- "American punk rock trio the Minutemen" - Minutemen or THE Minutemen?
- Well, "the Minutemen", same as the grammar used in the Pixies article.
- Although Double Nickels on the Dime did not receive mainstream reviews upon its release, the album now appears on many professional lists of the all-time best rock albums" - the connection between reviews and appearing on these lists is somewhat loose... better to say that it was reviewed [later], and put the list mention in another sentence?
- Fixed. WesleyDodds (talk) 08:03, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
- "As with their previous material, the Minutemen ignored conventional song structures and chose to experiment with rhythm, texture and dynamics." - statements like this could do with citations.
- "Zen Arcade was released at the same time, which had been delayed so that both albums could be released simultaneously" - the "which" is awkward, this sentence could be restructured.

Article/prose is generally quite good, and a great read. giggy (:O) 06:44, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
