Post-grunge poseurs

Oh man. This list of “sissy, post-grunge, mid-90’s poseurs” just breaks my heart. Why? Because it looks like my Top Rated playlist in iTunes. Those are ALL the songs from when I was in high school! See, this is why I don’t listen to much modern music anymore. My tastes just aren’t fashionable enough. (Okay, okay. I’ll admit I do cringe a little when “The Freshmen” comes on.)

    I LOVED some of those songs they list! I have got to go hunting for copies of One Headlight, Sex & Candy, Glycerine, Mr Jones, Flagpole Sitta…

    Ah, nostalgia!

    Oh my. Showing my age horribly – I can’t say I’ve heard any of them! Give me music from the 70-80s any day!

  3. oh boy. i could sing along with almost all of the songs listed. but, whatever, it’s not like each generation doesn’t have their share of cheesy singalong music.

    I was just watching a video last night that was a homemade music vid for Flagpole Sitta and thinking about how I hadn’t heard that song in forever.

    Neat vid if it will post: http://vimeo.com/173714

    Looks like a pretty fun place to work!

  5. I will gladly listen to “sissy, post-grunge, mid-90’s poseurs” over the crap that is coming out today.
