I spent the first half of the 90s loving them, the second half loathing them. I actually started to miss the 80s at the close of the 90s, but of course, an 80s I was too young to experience. So Sugar Town is just as much influenced by the Raincoats/Slits era of bands as it is riot grrrl or The Breeders.

There is a sort of pre-internet innocence of the 90s that I miss though. Everyone was really their own person and to find out about shit, you had to hang out with someone cool, and then your experience (old movies or music) had your own unique adventure attached to it.

Though I have to say as a miserable teenager of the 80s, the internet would have saved my life (and X Ray Spex).

Never seen one of those outdoor urinal kiosks before; the whole outdoor rock festival thing eluded me in the 90’s.

That whole Pavement “aw shucks” indie rock coyness always seemed a bit preening. Never trusted it. Not saying they weren’t a good band, though. But I am saying they should have worn makeup and capes.

Mushrooms suit you very well Philebrity… sometimes your harsh amphetamine rush speak can be a bit much.
