Sorry, I wasn't clear enough. When you Google "something wiki" their Wiki page comes up on Google, if you've previously visited a link the link is purple.. if you still don't get what I mean I'll print screen.

But yeah, I have no idea where Cincinati is. I assume South of America? My Geography isn't great. Even though I know where they're from, that still doesn't tell me if they're good!

Default Could use some suggestions.

Lately I have been addicted to a lot of 90s lo fi music. I have been listening to a lot of the first Apples in Stereo album, Elliot Smith, Liz Phair, Guided by Voices, and some Mountain Goats. Any suggestions for some new music?


I even made a nice little drawing about my love for 90s music

Beyond the obvious of Pavement,Built To Spill and Modest Mouse, perhaps the mighty Beat Happening?
