I was born in the ’80s, but I’ll always consider myself a child of the ’90s. I’m thrilled that ’90s nostalgia is upon us, since I can participate in it without feeling like a fraud. (’80s nostalgia is great and I love the Smiths as much as the next guy, but it’s a little hard to feel to sentimental about the old days considering that the band broke up when I was two.)
The six members of Vancouver’s Bad Fate clearly grew up on a steady diet of ’90s guitar rock, and you can hear echoes of Pavement and Dinosaur Jr. in “Brain Enthusiast” from the newly-released Olympic City.
It’s more than just a throwback, however, since there’s also a hint of Broken Social Scene in the song’s spiraling riffs and driving rhythm section.
