Contemporary Movement is the second studio album by American slowcore band Duster.[3][4] The album was released in 2000 on Up Records.[5][6] It was their last album before the band's hiatus later that year.[4]
Unlike Duster's previous album Stratosphere, all three band members were involved in the making of Contemporary Movement.
Portland Mercury wrote that "Duster’s unhurried compositions never fully clarify or cohere; voices hide behind dense washes of guitar, verses reach toward choruses that aren’t there, songs end abruptly before they can be caught, tagged, and filed away."[7] Pitchfork gave the album an 8.4/10, writing "there's nothing here nearly as abstract as the buzzing drone construction that was Stratosphere's title track, but Duster still has a way with the slow tempo and the beautifully distorted guitar noise."[8]
