Sleater‐Kinney

On September 3, 1996, Sleater-Kinney delivered an electrifying performance at The Middle East Downstairs in Cambridge, capturing a pivotal moment in their career shortly after the release of their second studio album, "Call the Doctor." This album was a significant step in establishing them as a powerful voice in the '90s punk scene, characterized by its raw sound and feminist themes. Notably, their performance coincided with a burgeoning underground movement, and this live set showcased their dynamic energy and tight instrumentation. This period also marked the band's increasing popularity, as they connected deeply with their audience through relatable lyrics and fierce melodies. Interestingly, this recording caught not only Sleater-Kinney's set but also a partial performance by Lois, highlighting the vibrant music scene of that era.
