With the Pixies kill-switch status, back in the on-position, and My Bloody Valentine back on the road, I have been spending a fair amount of time wishing it was somewhere between the years of 1990 and 96, mostly because I did not pay enough attention to everything the first time around. Good things happened in these years - e.g. Pixies last two records, Loveless , Pavement up to and including Wowee Zowee, Drive Like Jehu's entire career, not to mention Encino Man and Empire Records, as if all there weren't I had one of the greatest summers [...]

Wikipedia says .. "Swing Kids were a hardcore/political punk band from San Diego California during the mid 1990s. The band members were Eric Allen (of Unbroken), Jose Palafox (of Struggle and Bread and Circuits), John Brady (of Spanakorzo and Sweep The Leg [...]

Buckets Full of Emo (or) I Might Be Wrong (Part 2)
Here is part 2 of the revised and reexamined Buckets Full of Emo series (you can find part 1 here ). This one covers (roughly) 1994 and 1995 and reminds me of a funny conversation I had with my brother this past Friday evening that went something like this: Brother: Okay. There is this great band that you need to hear. Me: Who? Brother: Why do you post garbage? You should only write about good music. Me: Who is this band? Brother: Texas Is The Reason. Me: [...]

A spoonful of emo revisited
Way before what teens today think of as emo, the term was shorthand for emotional hardcore. It was not a dirty word that referred to the lifestyle that gets so much negative press these days. Originating in the Washington, DC music scene of the mid-1980's, some so-called "first-wave" emo or emocore bands included Rites of Spring, Embrace, and Moss Icon. Then came Fugazi (featuring ex-members of Rites of Spring and Embrace), Jawbox, and so on from there... This is (according to me) a brief history of emo in music only. Yes, it will be incomplete in some [...]
