superb! subpar music!
i was born in 1979 and hated most of the music that was popular when i was young/a teenager. as one does. as a snob, i only listened to 60s music back then. i still hate most of the songs that „explain the 90s“, but this is a great - and well written - podcast. i know that you have covered pavement, but i think slint, archers of loaf or blind melon (they even had a mainstream hit) would be a good addition/feature - maybe in episode 287? also, i have a soft spot for everclear and their 90s stuff (especially the album „sparkle and fade“). i know they were somewhat popular in the us but noone here in (central) europe seems to have ever heard of them. i still enjoy playing their songs in the jukebox (only songs from „so much for the afterglow“ available > enjoyable album, too) at the dive bar located two floors under my flat to a bewildered/indifferent crowd of two to three. cheers! ps: maybe someone should tell tom breihan that max martin and the „artists“ he has worked with are 0/10.

Unlike some podcasts I’ve listened to, I quickly got hooked on this one. Rob is an encyclopedia of knowledge and excellent storyteller, because he truly is an expert in his field. Despite being an expert, he hosts with such a self-deprecating style, that you too will quickly appreciate this...Read full review »

Having a blast with this podcast. It’s like Rob and I are the same person. Nearly every song is a song I would choose to talk about as well and I feel largely the same about the songs and the artists. I could talk about 90’s music forever, and probably will, lol. 120 songs that explain the...Read full review »
