What is "dustdevils"

The Dustdevils (sometimes styled as DustDevils or Dust Devils) were a noise rock band which was based in New York City for most of its history. It was active from the 1980s to the mid 1990s, and was among the first artists to be signed to Matador Records. Its members included bassist Mark Ibold, who later joined Pavement and Sonic Youth in 1992 and 2006, respectively. Ibold met the band while working at a restaurant, and performed on their album Struggling Electric and Chemical. Sasha Frere-Jones also played guitar in the group for a time.
