Album: Four Great Points by June of 44 (1998)
Format: Album

Description: Four Great Points is the third studio album by the Louisville-based math rock band June of 44, released on January 20, 1998, by Quarterstick Records.
The Chicago Reader called the album "a hypnotic blend of rock, dub, ambient, and orchestral pop," writing that "most of the songs begin with a simple but solid hook; dropped into the harmonic pond it blossoms into a series of variations that move farther and farther from the center."Salon deemed the album "a consistently inventive record, and one that carries a level of emotion that's rare in a genre often plagued with detached, highly textured noodling."

Artist Background: June of 44 was an American rock band from Louisville, Kentucky which was formed in 1994 from ex-members of Rodan, Lungfish, Codeine and Hoover (Sean Meadows had yet to participate in the Lungfish music band by 1994; his first album with them was actually in 1996). Clearly influenced by Slint, the band's music is often described as post-rock. June of 44 released their work on Quarter Stick with the exception of Fish 6. June of 44 split up in 2000. Members: Fred Erskine Sean Meadows Jeff Muelle... Emerged in the 1990s era.
