Formed in the early 1980s in Rhode Island with Hersh’s stepsister Tanya Donelly and others, Throwing Muses were added to the growing stable at the UK’s 4AD label, and by 1989’s Hunkpapa album were charting in the UK – part of a vibrant wave of college rock and dreampop alongside peers and labelmates such as Pixies and Cocteau Twins.
