i'm thinking 2010 should be the year of 1910! its time has come.
I've been saying this for ages! Falling around Art Nouveau townhouses smashed on absinthe listening to salon music. Doubtless opium would be involved somehow too.

tbh this thread has left me with nothing but an urge to name a band after a character from Galaxy High and do covers of "Sail Away" and claim it's ironic
sorry mum
I guess I'd better get onto Bucky O'Hare and "Mr Loverman" so I'm ready for the 90s nostalgia wave though

Yeah but the 90s didn't have an influx of grunge/indierockers named The Brady Bunch, Scooby Doo, Happy Days, etc.
There were the Groovie Ghoulies. I bet there were others, too.

Yesterday I posted on Facebook that I'd rather listen to Grand Funk Railroad than any rock music released in the last 20 years and I stand by that more than ever after reading this thread.

On Slate today:
I know, Bingham wrote it, but we get to hear him perform it on the soundtrack ever after, and we get to see Jeff Bridges in character as Bad Blake only one last time (unless my dream sequel, Even Crazier Heart: Electric Boogaloo, is currently in development).
(Does Dana Stevens not get that for "Electric Boogaloo" to work as a imaginary sequel subtitle, the title has to end in "2"? Or is this all a sly wink at how played out the joke is?)

not 'chillwave' (lol genre names keep getting more creatively bankrupt too, this name means nothing) but there was some shitty hardcore band a few years back called rival schools, with an album 'united by fate'. band name is bad enough but the name of the record is also ripped from the same video game title!

"chippendale's comics made a lot of people of the following generation think they could do what he could do, but they can't, at least not with the ease they think, and they haven't."
They have done it, just not 900 pages of it at a time.

OTM. Maybe getting on the cover of a magazine with a shitty band name shows you think the magazine is stupid and want to further illustrate that point by getting a dumb name printed on the cover.
