Personally, i don't consider Nirvana 'Bleach" or Kyuss "Sky Valley" or The Cure "Disintegration" or the Foo Fighters to be lo-fi at all.

 

Somebody mentioned The Stones as being lo-fi. And this struck others here as odd. I think what you have here is two different types of lo-fi.

 

1. DRI "Dealing With It" - Sounds like it was produced on a boombox in a bedroom. But, it kicks ass. Yes, it sounds terrible...but I love it. But, DRI went on to much better sounding productions. So, they were a band that was recorded lo-fi.

 

2. Kyuss is a good example of the opposite. This is what I would consider a lo-fi band that was recorded in hi-fidelity. I think The Stones would fit that category. Lo-fi sound, hi-fi recording.

 

 

3. DK (Dead Kennedys) - The third type: Lo-fi band recorded in lo-fi. ;)
