Okay this is a hard one to think of. I just gave Bull in the Heather a listen and itās very 90s grunge, but I think uniquely still a very calm cadence. Vocally she kind of reminds me of Hole, maybe some songs like Violet or even Doll Parts off the Live Through This album would work, but I feel like Hole does build up in the song a little more. Possibly Cannonball by The Breeders? Itās one that is very quintessential 90s to me also.

Yess Doll Parts! I haven't revisited that song in ages but you're so right. And yes to the Breeders also, Last Splash especially carries so much weight for me.
Thank you for your consideration :)

i think you would like the feminine complex. a band from the 60s who were ahead of their time in some ways so it may satisfy the vintage craving of yours.
in terms of tone, you may also really enjoy newdad. the song blue in particular gives me immunity vibes in a way.
kate bollinger also blends the vintage and pensive pop worlds really well, so check her out if you haven't already. yards and gardens + who am i but someone are great tracks to start with.
mind shrine often have a silky 60s/70s thing going on
i feel like i remember her playing some wendy & bonnie on an nts set of hers once! i recommend the song five o clock in the morning!
hey there lonely boy by ruby and the romantics maybe isn't as clairo adjacent as the other recs, but a solid gold oldie for sure!

Something about when it starts getting really hot makes me wanna listen to very specific types of music: MPB, JĆ¹jĆŗ, Highlife, Yacht Rockā¦ but my go-to late Spring/early-Summer music vibe has been ā90s/early ā00s twee pop, specifically Tiger Trap, Gaze, Cub and Brittle Stars. None of these bands are new to me, but Iāve been revisiting their music a lot lately. Thereās a rudimentary innocence to all of their music that really inspires and comforts me. Plus some of it just feels really punk to me ā namely Tiger Trap. I love Tiger Trapās one-and-only album from 1993, Gazeās Shake the Pounce, Cubās Betti Cola, and literally anything by Brittle Stars.

So we all think itās sketchy that Tik Tok is already back right? And that they posted a statement kissing Trumpās ass and making him out to be the one saving Tik Tok when he isnāt even sworn in yet? And now Trump wants the US government to have a 50% ownership, aka turning Tik Tok into state owned media just like I thought was happening. And Iām sure most people wonāt be able to stay away from Tik Tok and Meta which is so disappointing. I want nothing to do with Tik Tok now because I know the app as we knew it is already gone at this point.

Thereās something about the quality of digital camera photos that make a picture of anything you take look more pleasing (to me anyway). The nostalgia, the saturation, I love them. I have a couple cameras that still work from when I was a kid, but I also bought one on eBay that was similar to one that used to be a favorite of mine. I just throw it in my purse and take it everywhere, and itās so much more fun than trying to get the āperfect shot,ā especially now that Iāve deleted Meta and gone with Pixelfed it seems that people love posting anything from the little things they see or their drinks. Itās making photo sharing fun again! Although, if you do download Pixelfed (which isnāt the point of this post but) I highly recommend using it in your browser on your phone for now, theyāve already made things run smoother from when I first downloaded but theyāre definitely still working on the app.

Iāve already read 48 books in 2025 while being on my flip phone, social media detox life. Yes, some of them were just trashy romance, but still. Itās been so nice to get back into reading for enjoyment again. Itās nice to be out and about and not have that constant urge to reach for a phone and check notifications.
I donāt even have most social media apps downloaded on this anymore, I love this app though, and the urge to click on an app and doom-scroll is nonexistent. This brick of technology has really turned into my iPod and Kindle, and the occasional pop back on here.
