I discovered this like two days ago and i still can`t tell you how mind blowing this album is. The shit is amazing. The following is taken directly from wikipedia:
"This Heat were active in the ascendancy of British progressive rock and punk rock, but stood apart from those scenes due to a radically inventive approach that touched on numerous different styles and genres, but was always confrontational and politically charged. Their commercial success was limited, but This Heat are widely considered a missing link between progressive rock (especially krautrock) and such later experimental genres as post punk, post rock and noise rock."
I guess Slint was pretty influenced by these dudes as well.
