Cap’n Jazz - Scary Kids Scaring Kids
Submitted by skeletaljeans:
Cap’n Jazz only received major fame after their disbanding, but their sound is the essence of the 90s. Choatic and melodic, whining and beautiful. It brings tears to your eyes with the melancholy and memories. Gorgeous composition.
Guns N’ Roses - Paradise City
A live performance of the Appetite For Destruction hit from a Freddy Mercury tribute concert in 1991.
Monster Magnet - I Control, I Fly
From their 1995 album, Dopes To Infinity.
I can read all the lines on your face
I can breathe all the cancer in space
I can love all the worms of your hate
I can live, live in the void I know I control
I control, I control
Say what you will about the merits of Nirvana’s music (especially in comparison to their Seattle contemporaries) there is no denying that Kurt Cobain was an amazing troll.
In Nirvana’s only performance on Top of the Pops, frontman Kurt Cobain “played” his guitar with his fingers inches away from the frets (and occasionally clutched the microphone to make it obvious that he was not playing), drummer Dave Grohl danced around in his seat for most of the performance, and bassist Krist Novoselic waved his instrument around his head. Cobain also sang in a low, dramatic opera voice, later claiming he was trying to impersonate Morrissey.
