![]() ![]() Oh well, that song is too damn good to not be on there. ![]() Oops - turns out "Hate In Me" by Moss Icon was released in 1988. I'd love to see what everyone else's faves are. The Nation of Ulysses - Plays Pretty For Babyįeel free to use the comments section to post your own top 10 lists. Moss Icon - Lyburnum Wit's End Liberation Fly LPĠ9. Man Is The Bastard / Crossed Out split 7"Ġ1. Born Against - 9 Patriotic Hymns For Children LPĠ9. Assuck - Anticapital LP / Blindspot 7"Ġ7. ![]() Capitalist Casualties - Raised Ignorant 7"Ġ6. Citizens Arrest - A Light In The Darkness 7"Ġ5. Bands like Fugazi, Chisel, Unwound, 1.6 Band, and Phleg Camp. There were also lots of great bands lumped into this scene that would be hard to categorize. Jawbreaker, Samiam, Garden Variety, Jawbox, Greyhouse and Hot Water Music come to mind. Then there were those bands that seemed to merge indie rock, emo and punk into a sound that is still influencing bands 20 years later. There were also the guitar driven indie rock punk (for lack of a better term) of bands like Superchunk and Seaweed. ![]() There was the new wave of NY bands that emerged from the ABC No Rio scene (CxAx, Born Against, GO!, Merel, Los Crudos, The Manacled etc.), the powerful sounds (that would be come to be known as "powerviolence") coming from the West Coast (Neanderthal, Crossed Out, No Comment, MITB, Spazz, Capitalist Casualties etc.), bands like Native Nod, Heroin, Moss Icon, Indian Summer, Current, Inkwell, Hoover, and dozens more, who took inspiration from bands like Rites of Spring, Husker Du and Dag Nasty, and seemed to fuse it with the sounds of bands like Slint and Rodan, creating a unique sound that would be known as '90s emo. It was such a diverse and interesting time in the scene. As much as i love the hardcore, punk and crossover of the '80s, i think the 1990s may be my favorite era for punk music (that's how i feel this month anyway). ![]()
