90 s Chicago Post-Hardcore Revival

The actual trends indicate that the next wave of retro is going to be a quantum leap of retroness, and will go back at least 50 to 80 years. Ladies, start picking through eBay for good flapper-gear now. Men, you'll be looking quite dapper in your pinstripe suits. 23 Skidoo! Enjoy!


I already had the secret prediction of the "Newsies" look coming back in...

Well... thanks!


But they were nowhere near as "totally rad" as Pencil.

Hokey smokes!


That was fun, pulling that out that reference.

I know a number of friends who have the "Skantron" CD or tape (was it CD or tape?).

Then, Nutrino was "that guy from Pencil." One of my bands (Saraswati?)was supposed to play with Neutrino and Sweep, but I think someone in Neutrino broke their arm?

And now we're both mastering engineers. I have no idea how that ties together except maybe one of us has to break an arm.

Cheers!

And not the trend-setter type, but rather the douchebag tagalong type. The kind who still have backwards haircuts and wear riveted belts. Because they're not sure what the trendsetters will do next.

Doudes... fucking MTV's "The Real World" was set in Wicker Park like 6 years ago. When MTV jumps on your neighborhood cause it's hip, you KNOW it's not hip.

Wicker Park is not "real" hip. It's overly-trendy "hip", which is actually not "real" hip. I'd love to tell all you guys what the "real" hip neighborhoods/scenes are, but then, y'know, you and your backwards-hair-wearing douchebag friends would come and stink the place up with your goddamn post-hardcore.

BTW that Onion article is funny. But there's no worry. The actual trends indicate that the next wave of retro is going to be a quantum leap of retroness, and will go back at least 50 to 80 years.

Ya don't say? Think I'll have a red hot tonight.
