Two songs. One waitress. A world of difference.

Hop Along’s “Waitress” stays small — and cuts deeper.
A tale of post-grunge grandstanding vs. indie self-incrimination.

‘You got it or you didn’t’: the sweat, smoke and sonic excess of the indie scene pre-Britpop

@renkotsuban @indietsushin thank you for sharing these personal thoughts and feelings about your project. Reminds me a lot of what I went through while I created my own zine. I know it sometimes feels like it is all kinda pointless but I think your work is unique and valuable support for the #indiescene and you can be proud of it 👏
