A lot of you have no idea on things. I get it. It's k. K records even.

Just dig this.

You know Nirvana.

and that's fucking awesome. I saw them live. I get why Kurt wanted to die. He could never be his heroes.....

Husker Du if you don't know, and also....

the Pixies.

but at the same time, they all kinda hated the upstarts, the Replacements:

but hey, it beats picking cotton.

What I'm saying here is....... nothing.

And what yr about to post is nothing.

If it's any consolation, we don't begin to understand any more than you do.

Just chill with everything, till, you know, the next episode/post.

Early to mid 90's really were an awesome time for music.

It takes more than one peak to make a mountain range, but I have to agree with Homer Simpson that rock music was perfected in 1973.

Early to mid 90's was odd.

You have the start of the death metal and black metal outbreak. Tons of death metal records and a few black metal records. But through that mediocrity came the scene and a few greats that overshadow the bland.

Early mid 90's were a real sense of confusion. You see, in the mid 70's we had a sense of experimentation, but at the same time...the mid 90's had a weird sense of no direction , it didn't know what it wanted, what to shoot for. You can look at the pop music and all the underground stuff, they were all confused. The only time this happened again was from 2006-2009, where confusion struck all the music scenes, they search for an identity again, and they found it.

Music is affected in doves. It doesn't matter if you're a black metal band or a post pop ground, it runs through the veins.

As much as I respect the airship (waaaay more noe than in my youth) I have to say I still find new bands that fucking slay it: like Japandroids or Raveonettes. If I didn't, I think I would quit listening to music.

I remember listening to the shit out of Jagged Little Pill.

And the first two Tori records.

And Sarah McLachlan's "Fumbling Towards Ecstasy"

It was a dark time.

(Ani diFranco's early stuff is still badass though, she's the only solo artist I've ever seen who can slay it better than Bob Mould)

Oh no doubt, but back then as well as in the early '90s good music was low hanging fruit on the vine. Now days you have to hunt for it.
