what was the makeout music of choice at rich hippie high school?

― strongohulkington, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:10 (nineteen years ago)

Oh right great, there are now people on internet message boards who graduated from middle school the same year I graduated from college. Seriously, we are approaching the point where talking about random middling 90s indie-rock bands is going to make us look like we have arcane specialized back-in-the-day knowledge.

"Versus? Yeah, son, I used to play them on my college radio show, saw them a few times back at Lounge Ax."

― nabisco, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:12 (nineteen years ago)

anthony you are really floundering on this one

― strongohulkington, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:12 (nineteen years ago)

jess, you should write an emo version of that Marc Spitz novel about the Smiths and getting laid

― Curt1s Stephens, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:13 (nineteen years ago)

modern equivalent of romeo and juliet soundtrack is probably a specialty itunes playlist

― strongohulkington, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:13 (nineteen years ago)

A Jewish boy from Long Island parlays his New Wave rock music fandom into a quest for love in Spitz's sweet, winning debut, a coming-of-age novel-cum-quirky romantic comedy. Joe Green, Spin writer Spitz's alter ego, is a jaded, jittery and perpetually hungover music critic for Headphones magazine. He's "rocking out and getting high and living irresponsibly" in New York City-all part of the job description of working for a major rock and roll magazine-but he's beginning to worry he looks 40 in daylight, though he's only 30. The well-crafted first half of the novel flashes back to Green's experiences growing up as an alienated, latch-key kid on Long Island in the '70s and '80s who finds redemption in bands like the Clash, Depeche Mode, Devo and the Smiths. Spitz shifts gears when Green meets Miki, a comely co-worker who's equally frustrated with her empty, fast-lane rock and roll life. Matters improve when a new editor gives them the go-ahead for a landmark story: the two team up to try to reunite their beloved band, the Smiths. The scenes in which Miki and Green track down Morrissey and his mates work as the backdrop for the self-deprecating, would-be lovers' efforts to resist their attraction to each other. An engagingly acerbic style freshens the familiar material, and Spitz works hard not to run the Smiths conceit into the ground. The result is a first novel that skirts the usual cliches of rock tales and growing-up sagas.

― strongohulkington, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:14 (nineteen years ago)

sooo many xposts actually but I prefer the Vitamin C song actually and for some reason I watched the VH1 top 20 countdown religiously after school at the time so I feel like I have given a lot of consideration to both songs. In ninth grade I figured it was time to educate myself on the history of rock music and in that interest downloaded a bunch of songs by Vitamin C's alternative band Eve's Plum

― A B C, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:14 (nineteen years ago)

actually actually

― A B C, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:14 (nineteen years ago)

I WAS THERE when the phrase 'emotional hardcore' was first used in a Milwaukee alt-weekly article.

I WAS THERE when Conor Oberst recorded "Padraic My Prince." I said "don't do it that way, you're just going to break all your strings."

I WAS THERE in the marketing meeting when they added studded white belts to the Hot Topic inventory.

― strongohulkington, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:17 (nineteen years ago)

I WENT SHOPPING with Refused for shirts with epaulettes so they could become the International Noise Conspiracy and suck more

― nabisco, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:18 (nineteen years ago)

― strongohulkington, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:18 (nineteen years ago)

― da croupier, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:20 (nineteen years ago)

SHAMEFUL EMO CONFESSIONS TIME: in high school for a few months I was the token non-emo drummer in an emo band (back when a screamy band with prog song structures and political lyrics could be considered "emo" at least). I just googled the band's name and it was listed in a MySpace profile as one of this guy's fave bands (how we would've heard us in Alabama I have no idea):

― gff, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:23 (nineteen years ago)

― strongohulkington, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:24 (nineteen years ago)

― Mr. Que, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:26 (nineteen years ago)

― nickalicious, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:26 (nineteen years ago)

ian sevonious's talk show is strange. the one w/bonnie prince billy was real uncomfortable/hilarious.

i listened to that refused cd awhile back, it doesn't seem as weird now, or as crazy after hearing stuff that came later like dillinger escape plan.

― M@tt He1ges0n, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:27 (nineteen years ago)

and make up hasn't aged real well for me, but they really fucking killed live

― M@tt He1ges0n, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:27 (nineteen years ago)

I could've swore that X-Files soundtrack had a Ween song, too.
