  2. Had some KMFDM pop in my head yesterday so that means a listen today. I like Money and some of their earlier and a little of their more recent, but my sweet spot (and what in doing now) will always be Nihil from 1995, Xtort from 1996 and Symbols from 1997. What a RIDICULOUS three year punch of perfect, banger records. And lots of Ogre from Skinny Puppy on those.

  8. An archived broadcast of MTV's 120 Minutes circa August 1991 hosted by the late Dave Kendall. The Candyskins, Siouxsie & The Banshees, Julian Cope, et cetera. So glad that many classic episodes of 120 Minutes are available on the Internet Archive website.

  12. Released today 33 years ago:

    🇬🇧 Pet Shop Boys "Go West" – 1993

    Originally recorded by the Village People in 1979, the song was chosen by Chris Lowe for a 1992 AIDS charity event at The Hacienda in Manchester. The duo later decided to record their own version. The new bridge also made the song’s message of freedom and an idealised gay utopia more explicit...

  13. Grace

    #jeffbuckley #Grace #90smusic #folkrock #altrock #jazzrock #rock #rockmusic #music #musicsky #musiciansky One album. And then, he was gone. It's produced by Andy Wallace -- known for mixing Nirvana's Nevermind -- and deftly combines alternative rock, folk, blues and even some art-pop. All that and Buckley's four-octave range and you have something special. It had poor sales but over the years its reputation has risen to legend.

    The prompt is Kinky

    Happy Mondays, “Kinky Afro” from Pills 'N' Thrills And Bellyaches (1990)

    Holy #Madchester, how could I NOT cite this one?

    #ShaunRyder, the driving force behind #HappyMondays, has had his ups and downs - musically, more ups than downs imo - but this track, and the whole album really, is vintage Shaun, and the group's best.

    Try and sit still - I dare you!

    #anidifranco #outofrange #90smusic #90srock #altfolk #altrock #folk #righteousbabe #rock #rockmusic #music #musicsky #musiciansky The Rightous Babe's 5th album ... released on July 26, 1994. This is the album where we started to hear that expanded Ani Sound -- long-time collaborator Andy Stochansky is there on drums and guest musicians add some brass and even a damned accordion! Ani's takes on society, politics, politics and more are there. Thank God.

  16. 🇪🇸 Mecano "El 7 de Septiembre" – 1991

    A beautiful ballad that ranks among Mecano’s most beloved recordings. Built around elegant melodies, subtle arrangements, and Ana Torroja’s unmistakable voice, the song tells the story of two former lovers who continue to meet each year on the same date, bound together by memory rather than romance...

  17. MICHAEL ARMSTRONG
    Rockabye Baby! Lullaby Renditions Of The Smashing Pumpkins
    2007 U.S. CD issue

    I’ve long been a fan of these beautiful, lush and dreamy Rockabye Baby! albums, and if there was ever a band who’s songs were tailored for one, it’s the Pumpkins.

    In particular “Tonight, Tonight”, “Today”, “Disarm” and “1979”. The hits get shimmering and mellow instrumental renditions here, rife with glockenspiel, mellotron, and vibraphone.

    Even the scorching rockers on here get wonderful treatment. On “Cherub Rock”, Corgans screaming guitars and Jimmy Chamberlain’s thunderous drums get replaced with a wonderful nursery mobile-type kind of vibe. It’s really quite wonderful.

    Definitely one of my favorite releases of this series.

  18. DINOSAUR JR.
    Live In Hollywood 1991
    2026 U.S. RSD pressing
    Clear vinyl

    All hail J. Mascis!
    I knew I was going to get this, but it was just a matter of whether or not the shitty RSD powers that be decided to send my local shop any.

    This is my favorite Dinosaur Jr. era.
    The post-Lou #90s records are incredible, but this live set is heavily focused on Green Mind, and it was included in the 2019 European 2xCD version.

    This vinyl version is slightly abridged, missing a couple songs that the CD had, which I don’t mind much, because this shit sounds SAVAGE.

    I am a Dinosaur Jr. nut job, and a bit of a completist when it comes to them, so I’m happy to have this.

  19. Re-doing a #MusicWomenWednesday from 2024, as the video I'd linked to disappeared and I had to grab a new one.

    When I was a kid in the 90s, I had a Wax Trax video compilation on VHS that had this great cover of Patsy Cline's "Walking After Midnight" done by Los Angeles' BRAINDEAD SOUND MACHINE. This was the first way I ever heard this song, and I'm crazy about this version.

  20. I brokered a deal with the Dealbreakers

    The Dealbreakers are compromised of co-workers from my 9-5 job at Hirschbach Motor Lines, and I am someone who has a great interest in concert / live photography. What a perfect match! These fellows put on a fantastic show over the weekend at The Q Casino and Resort in Dubuque, IA and were kind enough to let me capture it. If you are a fan of 90s and 2000s music, you definitely need to catch one of their shows. They play such a wide variety of genre's and they are all extremely talented […]

  22. MEAT PUPPETS
    Too High To Die
    2025 U.S. reissue

    Oh man. This had been on my want list for a very long time, and I finally got one.

    One of my most listened to albums in high school; a great one start to finish.

    My HS band even had a few attempts at “Backwater”, to no avail. We could never quite get it. Stupid teenagers. 😂

    A lot of these 90s records are getting reassessed; due to a lot of them pushing 30+ years old, and this reissue was looooong overdue.
    Sounds pretty damn good too!

  23. Huge thanks to whoever gave me this link to when Curt and Cris from the Meat Puppets played acoustic songs on Tempe, Arizona radio station KUKQ in 1990 (so young - only a band for about 10 years at this point, but still, preparing to play with Peter Murphy).

    youtu.be/9w4-UCIF1aU

    They do a few songs with a mini interview - the first song is an instrumental version of a song they'd later record with lyrics, 'That's How It Goes' that Curt had JUST written, it didn't even have a title at that point- and he plays it on a 12 string he wasn't even familiar with. Just fuckin awesome. Then they do 'Plateau', 'One of These Days', 'If You've Got the Money, I've Got the Time' (the interview) and 'Candy Hearts', a George Jones cover. And the host Jonathan mentions a Smithereens CD at the end! Epic.

  24. #NowPlaying a throwback to the late 90s/early 2000s. Add N to (X) were a very strange, synthy, blippy electronic band that were only together for a few years at the middle/end of the 90s, and barely into the 2000s (they broke up in 2003). They made some catchy, weird songs.

    Add N to (X) did a few LPs, this is my favorite, 'Insult to Injury', from 2000: youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK

    Track 7 of that especially, 'Plug Me In', which is what got me hooked on them. The video for 'Plug Me In' has adult video actresses playing with toys, and isn't on YouTube. So I put it here (to download, it's too big to stream) because censorship is bullshit: drive.proton.me/urls/NF445YTQP

  25. CD inserts ftw. I already have an old copy of this, of course, since it's my favorite album, but I found this MINTY CD copy of Too High to Die at thrift the other day, and as a rule, I had to grab it.

  26. Cop Killer - #BodyCount

    youtu.be/yg_S4JJMxPU?si=mpviAV

    Fab live coverage from 1992.

    When talking about #controversial #music, there are few more shining examples than #CopKiller. Recorded by #IceT’s rock group Body Count, “Cop Killer” is a heated #song about a victim of #PoliceBrutality who violently takes matters into his own hands. The song faced criticism from #LawEnforcement agencies, the Parents Music Resource Center #PMRC, President #GeorgeHWBush and the public in general. Some people responded through #protests and #boycotts of any company associated with the distribution of the record. This caused sales to skyrocket, but also prompted certain stores to take the album off their shelves. Some countries, such as #NewZealand, attempted to have the song and the #rap group itself completely #banned. Stockholders threatened to pull out from #WarnerBrosRecords and executives received #DeathThreats. While Ice-T stood by his work, stating that it was a #ProtestSong meant to reflect hateful emotions rather than encourage violence, he subsequently decided to recall the album, removing the trouble-making song upon re-release.
