The Dustdevils (sometimes styled as DustDevils, Dust Devils, or DUSTdevils) were a noise rock band based out of New York City for most of its existence. Active from the 1980s through the mid 1990s, the Dustdevils were 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.[1][2] Ibold met the band while working at a restaurant in the East Village and performed on their album Struggling Electric and Chemical.[3] Sasha Frere-Jones also played guitar in the group for a time.[4]
