Pitchfork and Pitchfork.tv have been releasing a series of videos on various scenes in music in Chicago. Their most recent one, Yearbook Chicago: 1998 Post-Rock, Alt-Country and Rap, takes a closer look at those scenes mentioned, and a couple of Champaign-Urbana outfits get some recognition — Braid and American Football.
The mentions come at roughly 5:40, but take a few minutes and watch the whole thing.
h/t to John Isberg for pointing this out on Twitter.
