Album: Yank Crime by Drive Like Jehu (1994)
Format: Album

Artist Background: Although they weren't around for long, Drive Like Jehu had a tremendous impact on the evolution of hardcore punk into emo. Underappreciated during their existence in the early '90s, the band was sometimes overlooked next to post-hardcore kin like Fugazi and Quicksand; at the time, many critics also lacked the frame of reference to place their music in a broader context. The term "emo" hadn't yet come into wider use, and while Drive Like Jehu didn't much resemble the sound that word would late... Part of the San Diego, USA music scene. Emerged in the 1990s era. Associated with Post-Hardcore movement.
