December 1991: Was anyone listening to and enjoying the new records by MBV, Nirvana, Slint, and Talk Talk?

And if so, do you remember thinking to yourself, "This was a pretty good year for music."

Obviously a ton of other great records came out that year, but I'm curious about those four (Loveless, Nevermind, Spiderland, Laughing Stock). Were you aware that they were out and did you care about them?

Which of these is your favorite now?

NOT!

― Tape Store, Monday, 30 April 2007 01:14 (nineteen years ago)

I DO remember thinking it was a banner year for good music.

I was listening to Loveless & Nevermind a lot. I was WAY behind on Laughing Stock (not until 2000!), not so much on Spiderland (95 or so).

My favorite now is Laughing Stock followed closely by Loveless & Spiderland (I fear I am burned-out for good on Nevermind).

― Sum Fitch, Monday, 30 April 2007 01:16 (nineteen years ago)

in wrong order, reflecting what I thought at the time:

1) thought Nevermind sounded like it was pretty awesome from what I heard on KROQ, but figured I was hearing enuf of it daily to justify buying other stuff instead, so didn't buy it
2) didn't hear Loveless, assumed MBV was still the pretty-uninteresting band they'd been a couple of years before
3) had no idea Spiderland existed, was pretty out of the T&G loop
4) disliked Talk Talk then and couldn't give a rat's for them now

was more interested in Pastroal Hide & Seek and old Steely Dan tapes at the time

― Hans Rott, Monday, 30 April 2007 01:19 (nineteen years ago)

For some reason I remember pretty well:

Had already decided that "Isn't Anything" was better (heard "Loveless" first);

Was sick of Nirvana as someone I worked with had gotten an advance tape and played it all day every day for what seemed like months while constantly assuring a disbelieving group of us that they were gonna be huge;

Didn't quite get why "Spiderland" was such a big deal;

Wasn't aware of Talk Talk, and probably wouldn't have been interested at the time.

This last part would change quite a bit subsequently.

― dlp9001, Monday, 30 April 2007 01:22 (nineteen years ago)

1991 was a fabulous year for music, are you kidding? Would have been even better without Nirvana to spoil things.

― Bimble, Monday, 30 April 2007 01:23 (nineteen years ago)

Once again dlp9001 is correct: Isn't Anything was so much better than Loveless.

― Bimble, Monday, 30 April 2007 01:25 (nineteen years ago)

the important thing about whether Isn't Anything is better than Loveless is that nobody gives a shit

― Hans Rott, Monday, 30 April 2007 01:30 (nineteen years ago)

Awwwww. 22 year old me feel sad now.

― dlp9001, Monday, 30 April 2007 01:37 (nineteen years ago)

Actually, I would happy if less people gave a shit.

― Bimble, Monday, 30 April 2007 01:38 (nineteen years ago)

I was aware of "Laughing Stock" (which I hated, hated their new direction) and the press made me sure to be aware of "Nevermind" even though it didn't really take off commercially until 1992.

As for the others, I knew there was a band called My Bloody Valentine (which was a cool band name but still nothing I was particularly interested in), while "Spiderland" I didn't hear about until a few years ago.

It wasn't until Britpop that I became an "indie kid" although I did find "Nevermind" exciting in that it was better than other hard rock and it also represented a nice alternative to the rap and house music that tended to dominate the hitlists at the time.

― Geir Hongro, Monday, 30 April 2007 01:40 (nineteen years ago)

I LOVED slint, MBV and Talk Talk in 1991! Not so much Nirvana though. I thought nirvana sounded like squirrel bait when i first heard them. which was kinda cool. i liked mudhoney better. i thought kurtd was a dope on headbangers ball. trying way too hard to be, um, annoying or something.

1991 i was all about: slint, MBV, talk talk, swans, eyehategod, slayer, godflesh, um, lots of stuff. death metal. kd lang. roxy music. steely dan. jackyl. i moved back to connecticut around then (for a couple of years) and the environment really brought out the rockhead in me. blasting jackyl in my 84 cavalier in new milford connecticut. good times indeed.

― scott seward, Monday, 30 April 2007 01:56 (nineteen years ago)

There's no way I would have heard of Talk Talk's "new direction" in 1991.

― Alfred, Lord Sotosyn, Monday, 30 April 2007 02:05 (nineteen years ago)

Nirvana: yeah, played it pretty regularly, liked it. Don't need to hear it again.

Talk Talk: knew only "It's My Life" but was intrigued by a couple of Melody Maker stories about Laughing Stock and found it used, really loved it.

Slint: knew it existed but otherwise indifferent

And I think we all know about MBV and me by now.

― Ned Raggett, Monday, 30 April 2007 02:17 (nineteen years ago)

i had already been awed by the awesomeness that had come earlier, so i was ready for laughing stock. they are a band i have kept track of ever since i heard their first single on local rock radio. during a rare "new wave" hour that the biggest fm rock station in the area had going for about a month. the day i moved in with my brother in CT he handed me a promo casette of laughing stock! it was like a housewarming gift. i haven't been without talk talk in my life since 1981.

― scott seward, Monday, 30 April 2007 02:20 (nineteen years ago)

:-)

― Ned Raggett, Monday, 30 April 2007 02:23 (nineteen years ago)

Low End Theory came out the same day as Nevermind. I remember trying to decide between them & then buying both.

― mulla atari, Monday, 30 April 2007 03:11 (nineteen years ago)

um, sure. it was an okay year! there are a LOT of other reasons why in addition to just those of course...

― Mike McGooney-gal, Monday, 30 April 2007 03:17 (nineteen years ago)

I spent 1991 dancing around my living room to MC Hammer and Michael Jackson and Boyz II Men cassettes in my footy pajamas. I highly recommend it. (Alright, so I was about 5 years old at the time, but it beats listening to Nirvana.)

― The Reverend, Monday, 30 April 2007 04:01 (nineteen years ago)

Oh I definitely was aware of when Loveless and Nevermind came out, and I loved both of them (Im eh abt Nevermind now though). I'd been into MBV since their punkpop days so even "Isn't anything" had been a magnificent sock to the stomach when it came out - Loveless just cemented that.

To my eternal amazement I hadn't heard of Slint at all til about a year ago. Didn't realise TalkTalk were still going by 91. Huh.

― Trayce, Monday, 30 April 2007 04:54 (nineteen years ago)

I'm never cease to be amazed by the fact that, despite spending my formative years during the '90s, I managed to never hear Nirvana until about five years ago.

― The Reverend, Monday, 30 April 2007 04:57 (nineteen years ago)

I'm never cease to be

Thumbs up to me.

― The Reverend, Monday, 30 April 2007 04:58 (nineteen years ago)

I didn't hear Nirvana till about 1999. Loveless I think I heard in 2003, Spiderland later that same year, and Laughing Stock uh like last year (though I'd bought Spirit of Eden and knew about Talk Talk like 3 years ago).

― Curt1s Stephens, Monday, 30 April 2007 05:00 (nineteen years ago)

My friend bought Nevermind the day it came out. I visited him at college that week when I was 17 and heard it all weekend. I saw the video like a week later and then they got really big after that. I still listen to it in that favorite record from when you were 17 kind of way.

I bought Loveless in early 1992, I think. I dug it for a while, then for some reason ditched it. I bought it again in 1998 and still listen to it a lot. I kind of think that Isn't Anything has an apt title.

Heard of but never heard Slint until maybe 6 years ago, but I love Spiderland. Talk Talk I've only heard a handful of songs by and haven't gotten around to checking out yet.

― joygoat, Monday, 30 April 2007 05:14 (nineteen years ago)

i had a weird '91. first half was at college, which was all new jack swing and r.e.m. second half was in the u.k., which was primal scream, teenage fanclub, nirvana and, uh, carter usm. i liked nirvana, was aware of and only mildly interested in mbv (full appreciation came several years later with a used copy of loveless purchased for 92 cents), was uninterested in talk talk (a condition that persists, rightly or wrongly) and didn't hear of slint until 1994.

― tipsy mothra, Monday, 30 April 2007 05:19 (nineteen years ago)

Yeah, I tried to get interested in Talk Talk once, too...couldn't understand what all the fuss was about. It was some cassette with a white sleeve.

― Bimble, Monday, 30 April 2007 05:47 (nineteen years ago)

I was, what, 12 and a half? Yeah, eighth grade, my dad (who also posts to ILX, though I dunno his nü-ILX login) bought both Talk Talk and Nirvana. I played the shit out of Nirvana, and that Laughing Stock album is one that I heard a lot of hype about (I was cribbing CMJs), listened to, derided as gay in whatever the parlance of the time was ("retarded"? "lame"? "Gay" seems much more like what my 12-year-old self woulda said, except I didn't know "gay" as "bad" then).

Over the years, my ardor for Nevermind has lessened, but I never got Laughing Stock (haven't tried in a couple years, probably due for another one of those periodic listens where I try to figure out if it was me being retarded or whether the album wasn't very good). I've tried to get into Loveless again and again, but I just find it boring as hell. Which is weird, because I can listen to JAMC, Spacemen 3 or Flying Saucer Attack all day long. Slint's over-rated too, I think. Just sounds kinda embarrassing now, mostly (to my ears) due to all the folks that ripped 'em off but did it better.

― I eat cannibals, Monday, 30 April 2007 07:24 (nineteen years ago)

What I do remember is September 1991 when (at least in Britain), Screamadelica, Nevermind and Laughing Stock all came out in the same week (as did Robert Wyatt's Dondestan and, erm, Use Your Illusion 1 & 2, but anyway)...so that period did feel pretty special. Loveless has probably been talked to death on ILM.

― Marcello Carlin, Monday, 30 April 2007 07:42 (nineteen years ago)

Spiderland was this odd album we'd picked up in Rough Trade, mainly on the strength of the cover (since in those halycon days of albums costing £5.49-£6.49 you could afford to take a few more risks than now). Really liked the record and also the fact that you couldn't easily pigeonhole it except in a post-Saqqara Dogs/Blind Idiot God sort of way (ask your dad/Simon Reynolds/delete where applicable)...and then MM published an ecstatic review by Albini a few weeks later.

Obviously with hindsight it was the beginning of time.

― Marcello Carlin, Monday, 30 April 2007 07:46 (nineteen years ago)

1991 was this for me; http://www.stylusmagazine.com/articles/staff_top_10/top-ten-songs-i-loved-to-dance-to-at-the-school-disco-aged-12.htm

― Scik Mouthy, Monday, 30 April 2007 08:30 (nineteen years ago)

i listened the shit out of all these records in 4th grade

― latebloomer, Monday, 30 April 2007 08:42 (nineteen years ago)

Lots of songs there Dale Winton's unlikely ever to play on Pick Of The Pops.

Good records, though.

― Marcello Carlin, Monday, 30 April 2007 08:43 (nineteen years ago)

slint had a HUGE pre-teen audience due to their Nickelodeon guest-spots

― latebloomer, Monday, 30 April 2007 08:43 (nineteen years ago)

bigger than Hammer or Nilla Wafer or Kriss Krosstepherson or who ever was the reigning teenybopper idol of the day

― latebloomer, Monday, 30 April 2007 08:44 (nineteen years ago)

My Bloody Valentine: Bigger than slap-bracelets

― latebloomer, Monday, 30 April 2007 08:45 (nineteen years ago)

At home I was listening to Marillion and Guns N Roses.

― Scik Mouthy, Monday, 30 April 2007 08:45 (nineteen years ago)

Talk Talk: being a fan guaranteed you 4th grade pussy

― latebloomer, Monday, 30 April 2007 08:46 (nineteen years ago)

Nirvana: never heard of 'em

― latebloomer, Monday, 30 April 2007 08:47 (nineteen years ago)

nick's school disco list gets a lot of it but my school discos (i was 11 and went to big school in the autumn of '91) were... ravey/housey. things like cc penniston. there's no way they'd have played new order. the biggest tune of that year round the way was probably 'charly'.

― That one guy that quit, Monday, 30 April 2007 09:00 (nineteen years ago)

i barely heard nirvana till after KC offed himself; obviously never heard the others till years later.

― That one guy that quit, Monday, 30 April 2007 09:02 (nineteen years ago)

yeah the prodigy, cece peniston, oceania's 'insanity', c&c music factory, sabrina johnston's 'peace'...everything on this amazing thing basically. good good times.

also kris kross, and shanice's 'i love your smile', which was my first ever favourite song.

as for the bands in the title - i had never heard of any of them at the time (lucky me). as of today i've only heard nevermind which i think is really terrible. i've still never heard anything BY slint or talk talk (obv i have heard the gwen cover of 'it's my life' which i like), and only one song by mbv which passed me by in a wash of nothingness.

― lex pretend, Monday, 30 April 2007 09:06 (nineteen years ago)

(btw i was eight in 1991)

― lex pretend, Monday, 30 April 2007 09:06 (nineteen years ago)

i had both loveless and nevermind pretty much within the first fortnight of release. it probably helped that i already had and adored their previous single/EP releases..

― electricsound, Monday, 30 April 2007 09:15 (nineteen years ago)

― Geir Hongro, Monday, 30 April 2007 09:21 (nineteen years ago)

i was born in 1982.

my older brother played nevermind all the time on its release. i liked it, but for some reason favoured pearl jam's ten.

i might have chanced upon mbv's name in a couple of magazines around that time, but didn't hear properly till about 97.

got into talk talk towards the end of 2000.

and slint, i would have heard for the first time in 1998. got into them uber-fucken-bigtime an 2002

― Charlie Howard, Monday, 30 April 2007 09:36 (nineteen years ago)

I was also listening to: Perspex Island, Cerulean, Joyride, Roll the Bones, and, my favorite, Electronic.

― Alfred, Lord Sotosyn, Monday, 30 April 2007 11:04 (nineteen years ago)

Nevermind

was aware, listened to tons, still like but don't play too often

Loveless

heard, liked but not totally satisfied with... feeling continues to this day really (i.e. yes is v.v.good, yes also a -bit- overrated)

― fandango, Monday, 30 April 2007 11:11 (nineteen years ago)

Let's be honest though; were any of these REALLY as good as "Do The Bartman"?

― Marcello Carlin, Monday, 30 April 2007 11:12 (nineteen years ago)

was more interested in 'Achtung Baby' than 'Nevermind'.
was more interested in 'Ex:El' than 'Achtung Baby'.

― blueski, Monday, 30 April 2007 11:12 (nineteen years ago)

Oh, forgot Ex:El! Man, I wore that cassette to death...

THIS was my 1991

i only discovered the other month that cola boy = st etienne!

― lex pretend, Monday, 30 April 2007 23:47 (nineteen years ago)

I turned four in December 1991 so I honestly didn't know

You mean, you weren't even grooving to "Turtle Power"? :)

― Geir Hongro, Monday, 30 April 2007 23:47 (nineteen years ago)

The first three Black Box singles -- "Everybody Everybody," "Strike it Up," and "I Don't Know Anybody Else" -- are at least as good as the first three C+C Music Factory singles

And "Ride On Time" from '89 slays'em all.

Speaking of Loleeta Holloway, what about "Good Vibrations" -- house-pop hip-hop!

― Alfred, Lord Sotosyn, Monday, 30 April 2007 23:48 (nineteen years ago)

ha, wasn't that with marky mark or something? i remember it though, it was brilliant.

― lex pretend, Monday, 30 April 2007 23:52 (nineteen years ago)

Loleeta Holloway, like Martha Wash and Aretha Franklin, is the one singer that 13 out of 12 female singers these days tries to copy. (which, obviously, is very boring in the long run)

― Geir Hongro, Monday, 30 April 2007 23:55 (nineteen years ago)

You turned four Curt1s? Jesus I was 21.

― Trayce, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 00:42 (nineteen years ago)

oh no another thread listing fun dance tracks from a bygone age!

'Just A Touch Of Love' was good tho, I often forget it myself. And 'Makin Happy' was a third good single by Waters.

(which, obviously, is very boring in the long run)

like when men with guitars try to sound like other, older men with guitars

'13 out of 12' is an unusual stat to quote tho. i appreciate the novelty.

― blueski, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 11:59 (nineteen years ago)

Let's see... I was born in 1984, so I was 7 in 1991. I think that was 2nd grade. I think Kris Kross was big. Boyz II Men were huge (I grew up in Philly). Also... I seem to remember Bohemian Rhapsody was huge in my class that year - but that might've been an aberration.

Personally, I was living to the Les Miz soundtrack over and over again.

― Mordechai Shinefield, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 12:10 (nineteen years ago)

Boyz II Men were huge whether you grew up in Philly or not.

― The Reverend, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 15:00 (nineteen years ago)

'Bo Rap' getting re-released was a sucky way for the year to end, with so much excitement elsewhere.

― blueski, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 15:01 (nineteen years ago)

oh no another thread listing fun dance tracks from a bygone age!

consider how it began, and be thankful for small mercies

― lex pretend, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 15:02 (nineteen years ago)

Nevermind I heard in early 1992
Loveless I heard in late 1992
Spiderland I heard in 1994 or 1995
Laughing Stock I heard in 1999

I love all of these albums. I would perhaps rate them LS/Nevermind/Loveless/Spiderland. Perhaps.

― strongohulkington, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 15:06 (nineteen years ago)

I may not have actually heard Laughing Stock until 2000. Nevermind and Loveless are the only two that I have firm memories of hearing for the first time, whereas with the other two I have very specific memories of listening to them at "important" moments removed from whenever I first heard them.

― strongohulkington, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 15:09 (nineteen years ago)

Also... I seem to remember Bohemian Rhapsody was huge in my class that year - but that might've been an aberration.

It was rereleased in early 1992 to coincide with the first Wayne's World movie. Its popularity on the charts was kind of weird: it peaked higher than it had in 1976 (#2, maybe?), and I remember hearing it on B96 in Chicago, which was otherwise a dance/urban radio station: it was sandwiched between, like, Kris Kross and Yaz.

― jaymc, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 15:12 (nineteen years ago)

i started hanging aout at my college's radio station in 1991. sometime in that fall my soon to be girlfriend sat me down in the radio station's lounge and played bits of Spiderland for me & the Breeders album Pod. This was pre-Internet, so we didn't know for sure that both bands shared a drummer, it was all just rumor until the next Trouser Press Guide came out, but the more I listened to both, the more I was conivcned they were the same person. Shannon Doughton seemed like a cover up.

Loveless was huge, of course, and so was Matthew Sweet's Girlfriend.

I will never get sick of Nevermind.

― Mr. Que, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 15:15 (nineteen years ago)

haha matthew sweet otm

― strongohulkington, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 15:17 (nineteen years ago)

i was giving that dude's records a fair shake into college

― strongohulkington, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 15:17 (nineteen years ago)

even the one with the rip-off roger dean cover

― strongohulkington, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 15:17 (nineteen years ago)

and I remember hearing it on B96 in Chicago, which was otherwise a dance/urban radio station: it was sandwiched between, like, Kris Kross and Yaz.

i wonder if this in turn was what inspired that awful Braids version.

― blueski, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 15:19 (nineteen years ago)

Girlfriend is great! A little on the long side. Also, I stopped listening to Gish as much after Nevermind. Oh, I was also WAY into Green Mind by Dinosaur Jr.

― Mr. Que, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 15:20 (nineteen years ago)

my taste between 1991 and 1994 or so was such a trainwreck of awesome and awful. i think i even owned a belly record.

― strongohulkington, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 15:21 (nineteen years ago)

actually i owned two belly albums! damn you, columbia house!

soooooo very OTM.

Take your head off boy when you're talking to me
and be there when i feeeeed the treeee

― Mr. Que, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 15:22 (nineteen years ago)

i mean my taste was awful between those years as well.

― Mr. Que, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 15:22 (nineteen years ago)

i was still listening to Toad the Wet Sprocket in 1991.

― Mr. Que, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 15:23 (nineteen years ago)

the pop music i was listening to pre-1991 is pretty unimpeachable; even the bad stuff is vaguely redeemed by nostalgia. there's really nothing redeemable about grant lee buffalo, however.

― strongohulkington, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 15:23 (nineteen years ago)

i remember being 12 or 13 and thinking some toad the wet sprocket song was REALLY DEEP. it wasn't even a snob thing, like "this is so much deeper than c&c music factory."

― strongohulkington, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 15:24 (nineteen years ago)

*hangs head in shame about the Toad revelation*

ha, I heard that Grant Lee Buffalo dude on NPR the other day. dude writes for the Gilmore Girls now or something? he's a strolling troubadour??

― Mr. Que, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 15:24 (nineteen years ago)

at least you didn't start hearing Levellers songs and thinking 'actually this is alright'

― blueski, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 15:25 (nineteen years ago)

If we ignore the Bryan Adams interregnum, 1991 was GREAT for pop. Hell, I heard Jesus Jones' "Real, Real, Real" at the cafeteria last week and it sounded killer.

― Alfred, Lord Sotosyn, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 15:25 (nineteen years ago)

?!?!? A Grant Lee Buffalo fan? Jess I'm honestly shocked.

― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 15:25 (nineteen years ago)

someone was actually writing a review of the new grant lee phillips album for me, so i decided to snag one of the glb albums off of slsk and it's actually not too bad. dude's affecting mor alt-rock songs were kinda torpedoed by his undigested "back to the land"isms though.

i was 15 for chrissakes, ned.

― strongohulkington, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 15:27 (nineteen years ago)

i mean i owned a reverend horton heat cd.

― strongohulkington, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 15:27 (nineteen years ago)

no I'm sorry Jesus Jones is a crime against humanity.

― Mr. Que, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 15:27 (nineteen years ago)

THEY POINTED THE WAY TO THE FUTURE.

― Alfred, Lord Sotosyn, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 15:28 (nineteen years ago)

'Real Real Real' is grebt!

the worst record i actually BOUGHT (as opposed to copied off a school friend) between 91 and 94 tho...quite tough as there weren't actually many. if not INXS greatest hits then maybe Senser's 'Stacked Up' (for the preachiness/worthiness).

― blueski, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 15:28 (nineteen years ago)

the Blake Babies! I had all of their CD's and I loved them. I don't have any of their stuff anymore.

― Mr. Que, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 15:28 (nineteen years ago)

i was 15 for chrissakes, ned

Yeah but I thought you were already way into Gravity Records stuff by then.

― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 15:28 (nineteen years ago)

oh i was! i mean that's kind of my point.

― strongohulkington, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 15:29 (nineteen years ago)

Clarity.

― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 15:29 (nineteen years ago)

i was listening to like, the wu-tang clan, grant lee buffalo, born against, and mary j. blige.

haha actually other than grant lee buffalo that's pretty much what i listen to now.

― strongohulkington, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 15:30 (nineteen years ago)

going to jesus lizard shows and at the same time really digging the friggin' toadies

― strongohulkington, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 15:30 (nineteen years ago)

yeah i listened to the Replacement's Take Out The Trash from high school onwards, but I still had the Toad the West Sprocket and REM jones until probably halfway through college

― Mr. Que, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 15:31 (nineteen years ago)

i was writing something for work this week and when i realized i could call up the names of both a toadies album and a reverend horton heat album from memory that i was inexorably part of the alt-rock generation

― strongohulkington, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 15:33 (nineteen years ago)

Smoke Em If You Got Em

― Mr. Que, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 15:33 (nineteen years ago)

it's also easy to forget this stuff was pop! (at least in america.) i remember hearing shudder to think songs in the car on the way to the mall.

― strongohulkington, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 15:36 (nineteen years ago)

on the radio, i should say.

― strongohulkington, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 15:36 (nineteen years ago)
