By 1989, the Velvet Underground’s Moe Tucker had fallen pretty far — with Andy and Lou long gone, the one-time Easy Village art institution found herself working at Wal-Mart. Consumed with the rigors of the every day, Life in Exile After Abduction captures the angst and urban aggression of the Velvets, but casts aside the detached cool. At times akin to the VU, the Shaggs, Sonic Youth, and the Vaselines, this is a true college-rock-era classic (over-looked, perhaps, only because its maker was old enough to be the mother of late-’80s arteratti like Sonic Youth and Beat Happening).
