Alt rock has come back in such a big way in the past few years, and as a long-time alt rock fan, I feel kinda vindicated but it's also so disorienting sometimes? Like the same people that would've laughed at my Nirvana shirts in the 2010s now realise how cool a band they were. I'm not on Tiktok, but I've read like Vice articles about how teen tiktokers 'discovered' old music again during lockdown and suddenly it was cool again, and yes, 'old' music included 90s and 2000s bands. Also because of indie sleaze revival, I guess Vice is cool again too? Like it's nice, but I also can't wrap my head around it sometimes

Yes, yes, yes!! Anon this is exactly it. It's not even just limited to 90s and 00s bands, in fact. A friend and I grew up on Led Zeppelin, and so we loved Greta Van Fleet when they first started. I saw them live in 2019, and the crowd was very 50+. Now the kids on Instagram are commenting 'pookie' under singer Josh Kiszka's posts. Apparently tickets to see them when they went back on tour in like 2022/23 were really hard to get, and when I'd walk around campus with my band tee from the 2019 show, people thought I was the hottest shit on campus, which was so wild because two years ago they were calling it grandpa music.

I also noticed in my time on campus that groups of partying kids were suddenly not walking down the street blasting EDM but instead were singing along to Franz Ferdinand's Take Me Out. I've seen cool kids book music venues and throw party shows where their bands cover Van Halen's Jump, and every one of the seemingly hipster kids sings along and knows every word. It's a rennaissance like I've never seen before!

I think 'indie sleaze' revival might slightly pre-date lockdown given Lizzy Goodman's Meet Me In The Bathroom book came out in 2017 and it was already putting attention back on some of those NYC bands, but sure, alt rock revival in general only helped it. Then the documentary version came out in 2022.

You're so right, alt rock is back in such a big way, and I love it :)

ALBERT HAMMOND JR.: After I moved in with Catherine and he moved in with Juliet, we just didn't hang out the same way anymore. I missed his energy. I got sad; I felt a distance between us. That was a big part for me in this band—just hanging out with him, just being friends with him. We lived together for seven years. I've never lived with a girl that long. JULIAN CASABLANCAS: Does that mean anything to me? I mean, of course. The way I remember it, we were roommates and we moved places and I wanted to stay roommates and I feel like maybe he was not so into it anymore. Albert, you don't know what you've got til it's gone, baby!
