RE: Growing Up 90's: What a Blessing it Was to Come From the Grunge/Punk/Metal Era of Music
We still have a rock station but its a weird mix of that weird new alternative with the old, they just don't match lol. There is still good new bands out there but you have to dig for them, the mainstream stuff is just not really saying anything to me in lyrics nor music. The days of just playing and forming a band is now a thing of the past, its all over produced cookie cutter for money stuff in the mainstream. I tend to go for underground music for the last decade or listen like you to the older music. Seems the day I cut my long hair off was around the time the music industry took a nose dive lol...my bad jk
Pffffffft short hair is way more metal.
lol...I know lol. Know what got me to cut it off? My daughter, when she was a baby she had this thing to tug on my hair and it got so painful I said hell with that noise lol...never grown it back since lol
Good cause it's not a good look for you. ;) (is very against long hair on guys - why I married a military man hhahaha).
lol...I think my girl is for it lol...she wanted me to grow it back but I kind of got used to it this way so I can't bring myself back to that style. Where it was normal for me with long hair then, just a little growth now makes me feel not myself. We change I guess but still the same person on the inside, all metal, all punk and rock to this day.
If you do grow it back, please no man bun.
lol I was never into the man bun thing lol. Probably won't grow it back, just got so used to it short, but I should grow it out some, the constant shaving it down look is growing old on me lol
Great post! I'm a nineties kid too. As far as some stuff you may like, may I make some recommendations? Okay, great, you said "sure thing!", so I shall. I have to give @cellardoorzero credit for turning me on to some of these: Deadboy and the Elephant Men, Pissed Jeans, Cocksparrer (far from new but super good English punk with a message), BRMC, The Prosaics, The Spits, The Network, Sons and Daughters, Murder City Devils, The Ravonettes, Giant Sand, and The Thermals. Okay, none of these are exceptionally new, but check some of them out sometime. Cellardoorzero, also has a new post up where you could hit him up for recs. He was into some of the same stuff as you in the nineties and worked in a record store for ten years. Cheers!
Sweet comment, I have to check into all of those because most of them are new to me lol...never heard of them. I will be sure to check out cellardoorzero too, always awesome to meet fellow music lover
Start with "Tonight"by the Spits.
I will do, probably tomorrow due to just about to hop off here and call it a night but I will remember that one. How can I not with the title THE SPITS lol. Thanks for that, I am always hunting for good new music
