New 90s Podcast
The White Stripes - The White Stripes
The 1999 self-titled debut by The White Stripes ended the 90s with a minimalist blues recording that would reorient rock music for a decade
Little did anyone know that a two-piece garage rock band from Detroit would kick off a sonic revolution in 1999. The White Stripes debut of minimalist blues paired down to just vocals, guitar, and drums wasn't completely without precedent in the underground music scene with bands like the Flat Duo Jets and Bassholes preceding them. And while it would be a few years and a few albums before the mainstream caught on, the core elements of The White Stripes sound were there from the start. Special guest: Johnny Hooper - DMO UNION
Coming Soon
Join us for our next roundtable: The Cure in the 90s
Our February roundtable has been selected, and it's The Cure "In The 90s." After ending the 80s on the high note of 1987's Kiss Me Kiss Me Kiss Me and 1989's Disintegration, the band entered the 90s no longer an underground or college rock band, but with a radio and MTV presence like fellow 80s alternative bands R.E.M.
Though they only released two studio albums, that doesn't mean The Cure wasn't busy or had a light docket of releases. Greatest Hits, live albums, and remix albums factor into a busy decade for the band.
