I guess it took awhile, but bands started poppin up here and there like oasis, chilli peppers, U2 and even metallica. OBEY YO MASTA! MASTA and people took notice, but still other things were more distracting, like boy bands and alanis morssette's ugly face.
And then as the years rolled on, I think the genre that really infused rock was punk. Like sum 41 and Blink 182 and all those, because not only did it make people jump around, it also gave rockers in the making reason to make stuff better. OWNED. But of course I listened to all that jazz too. But during that time alot of stuff was just coming out, and more progressive stuff was being played, so all of the sudden, it was like rock was saved once again. At least until n'sync came out and we found ourselves distracted once more. Damn n'sync did so much damage to society. They hand-crafted todays preps.
Now indie started way back early 90's, and if you really wanna get into it, indie pop started in the 70's but more bands were catching on. With theyre hip crowds and their hip t-shirts, these people didnt want to tell a soul. The general public didnt care anyways, but thats what made it sort of personal in a way. Even I was mad when I heard the shins were playing SNL for the first time. But you realize that they just want to succeed like anyone else, and they basically took a decade as a band to finally get there, which in the end makes most new indie bands feel very underwhelmed about their futures.
or maybe something completely awful that makes me hate the genre all together. Time will tell!
anyways, after that 5 min constant typing ramble(which ill prolly wanna edit a million times to add all the bands i missed) ill leave with a song to listen to
its called "In transit" by "hammond Jr." which is not his full name but anyways, its solid
next blog=whatever I feel like dammit!
