Underground, an album originally self-released on cassette in 1999 by the 21-year-old undergraduate CalArts student. Underground captures Ariel Pink’s rapidly developing practice, which in short time shifted from crude proto-punk home recordings to a singular aesthetic that explored a wide spectrum of pop music. Underground reveals astounding details missing from Ariel’s earliest recordings and demonstrates the evolution of an obsessive music fan to a startlingly original and mysterious innovator.

Ariel Pink - Archevil
by Ariel Pink

supported by 22 fans who also own “Underground”

serpentine slick tires scarcely maintain friction kiss with the rain-drenched meandering road as the love-crazed spirit kid winds his way through another somber village, over sleeping hills and away from his vivid tragic dream. With his odd head, shaped much like a small castle, it's no wonder she could never love him; but did she have to laugh (as he tried to put his helmet on)? Lahet Kherev
