    Kurt Cobain was a big Shonen Knife fan. Maybe not that great, but probably the closest thing to a genuine Japanese contender.

    I was irritated because everyone around me was talking and not paying attention to the breeders, and they were kicking ass…

    Great Japanese bands include The Boredoms and Boris (who are still going strong today).

    If it's ever possible to see the Pretenders, ever, I hope yall advertise it.

    I totally know they're not a 90's band, but I just heard a back to back of their classics, and I absolutely love Chrissy Hynde.

    What is going on?

    It is really early or really late and you usually aren't posting at this time.

    I know this is their "popular song", but the Deals never looked or sounded better

    i almost left after the breeders b/c it was a school night and i had a paper due the next day. i would have been f***ing kicking myself for the rest of my life. and nirvana was fantastic. i was really impressed with their live show.

    i think an argument could be made for that being one of the top 10 defining songs of the decade. i havent listened to last splash in a long time. i need to revisit. if i listen to the breeders its usually 'pod'. i love that album from start to finish. and the safari EP. great one too.

    the bassist is british so im allowing myself to post this video in this thread.
