The 90s were not only about grunge. A lot of distinctive bands came out with brilliant albums. The Flaming Lips for example. Or Mercury Rev. For a while
Deserter’s Songs was my favourite album of the decade. The cover was appealing and I’ve listened to Holes for the first time I thought “what a great opening track”, so beautiful, so anchored in the past but at the same time pointing out the future, so lennonesque. Deserter’s Songs will always be a great album.
