About artist:
After Bob Stinson was fired from The Replacements in 1986, the band experienced several line-up changes; Slim Dunlap joined as lead guitarist and Chris Mars was replaced by Steve Foley in 1990. Towards the end of their career, Westerberg exerted more control over the band's creative output, recruiting session musicians for recording and writing all the original material. The band disbanded in 1991, with the members soon pursuing various projects. The Replacements never experienced wider commercial success, but have influenced various alternative rock acts, including Goo Goo Dolls, Green Day[1] and Pavement.
The Replacements' music was influenced by classic rock artists such as the Faces and The Rolling Stones as well as punk bands such as The Clash. Unlike many of their underground contemporaries, The Replacements played "heart-on-the-sleeve"[2] rock songs that combined Westerberg's "raw-throated adolescent howl"[3] with self-deprecating lyrics. The Replacements were a notoriously wayward live act, often performing under the influence of alcohol and trashing their instruments.
