1990s: CookiesRough Trade: 7/31/2007
1990s make party music. The subject matter is pretty predictable: parties, drugs, alcohol, sex, dancing, friendships, and most importantly, rock 'n' roll. Despite treading this well-worn path, 1990s overcome this handicap with songs as infectious as the substances they claim to take like candy. Their charm is enhanced by a sense of naivite, as if they believed they were the first band to ever advocate recreational drugs. "Weed" innocently suggests, "Why don't you try taking drugs again? You were no funnier than you were back then," as if consequences never entered their minds. 1990s give terrible advice but make great music.
