I’m about halfway through it, but so far it’s been really informative and interesting. It’s all about the birth and evolution of the indie music scene in the US, with an emphasis on punk, post punk, noise, emo, and what we would now broadly call “indie rock.” Each chapter is dedicated to a different band, highlighting influential acts like Black Flag, The Minutemen, Minor Threat, Fugazi, and my current hyperfixation: Sonic Youth. Check it out and buckle in for a pretty long and wild ride through the history of indie rock.

like the perfect snapshot into the late 90s alternative scene and the music industry as a whole. told through the stories of the brian jonestown massacre and the dandy warhols as they fall into the weirdest band rivalry ever…

wikipedia browsing is a great pass time in general. you learn so much new information you would’ve never normally seek out and it makes you full of fun facts and random knowledge. being high just increases the vibes by 1000%
