| Essay. Sired by 70s punk and nurtured through the indie 80s, the losers revolution broke big in the 90s. Upstarts like Nirvana changed the whole climate of the music business; stalwarts like Sonic Youth and the Meat Puppets finally had their day in the sun. Yet when the alternative became the mainstream, the scene that spawned the music collapsed under the weight of its own contradiction. OPTION, the acclainmed music magazine published by Scott Becker, was there to capture the saga. Sometimes playful, occasionally painful, and always passionate, these profiles from the pages of OPTION --written by the country s top music journalists -- trace the rise and fall of the best bands of the 90s. |
