Happy 25th birthday, Sub Pop!

“April 1, 1988, is when we quit our day jobs and moved into our tiny, original office, in the Terminal Sales Building downtown. It’s the first day of Sub Pop, with a big asterisk next to it: Except for the previous eight years.”

—Sub Pop cofounder Bruce Pavitt, fromEverybody Loves Our Town: An Oral History of Grunge
