Helium - Vibrations (Live Recordings: 1994-1998)

Another excellent fan-made compilation from Anazgnos over on the Internet Archive. This one gathers some very nice live Helium recordings that span the band's all-too-short career. Helium! They've certainly got their boosters, but they are maybe an undervalued band these days? Let's value them together. Mary Timony and co. had a unique vibe and viewpoint — and Timony probably deserves to be mentioned alongside the great guitarists of the 1990s (not to mention one of the coolest vocalists). There's plenty of proof here, anyway! And hey, a closing space jam with Sleater-Kinney? Yes, please.

Mary Says: It wasn’t easy to be influenced by and reference music you were interested in. It wasn’t as easy as it is now, when you can just look it up on your iPhone. You had to work a little harder to be physically influenced by things. I think there was almost an element of being influenced by [reading about something and] imagining what it sounded like. I think people were still in phase of trying to make new rock, music that hadn’t been made before. [You were] trying to create your own thing, more than now. Because now, all types of music exist at the same time. You don’t feel like you’re in your own space as much anymore.
