"Luxury Condos Coming To Your Neighborhood Soon" is a seminal compilation album released by the independent label Coyote Records, serving as an essential anthology of the vibrant underground music scene centered around the city of Hoboken, New Jersey, and its iconic venue, Maxwell's. The record brings together 15 diverse bands and artists who typically leaned toward experimental, quirky, and esoteric styles in their primary acts, but focused their energy here on raw and driving rock and roll.
The compilation is uniquely valuable for capturing the early steps and key collaborations of foundational figures in American alternative music. Highlights include the inception of future indie rock icons Yo La Tengo (formed by former rock critic Ira Kaplan and artist Georgia Hubley), a psychedelic, percussion-heavy offshoot of the legendary band The Feelies called The Trypes, and a project named The Jacks—a collaboration between Matthew Sweet and Chris Stamey of The dB's delivering a dub reimagining of a classic tune. The collection showcases the vast genre fluidity of the local scene, ranging from folk rock (The Wygals) and cowpunk or gritty country (Scruffy The Cat, Last Round Up) to greasy, raw blues (The Raunch Hands), impressionistic pop (Myra Holder), and moody college rock layered with heavy metal-influenced guitars (The Kilkenny Cats). Ultimately, this release manifests the countercultural spirit of the 1980s indie underground, championing authentic vinyl-pressed art over commercial urban development and gentrification.
