Music from 1992

January 18, 2004 geezer

Fri­day night we did a lit­tle con­cept: All the good peo­ple par­tic­i­pat­ing had to bring music from par­tic­u­lar year — the won­der­ful year of 1992. This is the music we lis­tened to:

Poly­gon Win­dow / Surfin on Sine Waves
Prince / The Love Sym­bol Album
Leonard Cohen / The Future
The Sand­men / Sleepy­head
The The / Dusk
Babes in Toy­land / Fontanelle
L7 / Brick are heavy
Ein­stürzende Neubauten / “Sala­man­d­rina“
Sonic Youth / Dirty
Twin Peaks Sound­track
Lars Hug / Blidt over dig
Pri­mal Scream / Screa­madel­ica
Rage Against The Machine / Rage Against The Machine
Adorable / “Sun­shine Smile“
The Cure / Wish
Nick Cave / Henry’s Dream
Stereo MC’s / “Con­nected“
Mid­night Oil / Scream in Blue Live
D:A:D / “Bad Crazy­ness“
Spir­i­t­ulized / Lazer Guided Melodies
Gang Starr / Daily Oper­a­tion
Vaya Con Dios / Time Flies
Alice in Chains / Dirt
Sucar­cubes / Stick Around for Joy
Manic Street Preach­ers / Gen­er­a­tion Ter­ror­ists
Love Shop / DK
Faith No More / Angel Dust
Madonna / Erot­ica
Suede / The Drown­ers
Lisa Nils­son / Himlen Runt Hörnet
Beastie Boys / Check your Head
22 Pis­tepir­rko / Big Lupu
Brian Eno / Nerve Net
Dr. Dre / The Chronic
Stone Tem­ple Pilots / Core
Ther­apy? / Nurse
Atomic Swing / Stone me into the groove
R.E.M. / Auto­matic for the Peo­ple
Pave­ment / Slanted & Enchanted
How Do I / Pluto
PJ Har­vey / Dry
Brand Nubian / God We Trust

As expected, not all of them qual­ify when dou­ble checked in var­i­ous online data­bases. But hey, this isn’t fascism.

Some of the stuff that didn’t make it due to lack of time, excess of alco­hol etc. include Kris Kross, Ace of Base, Billy Ray Cyrus (Achy-breaky-bad-mistakey), Tech­notronic, Right Said Fred, Bobby Brown and many others.

    Funny you should com­ment on this exactly today; we’re doing it again tonight, this time 1996 is up. I was sur­prised how much decent stuff was made there. I’ll try to make a list…
