#147 - The Music of 1995

from MODERN MUSICOLOGY · host modernmusicology

We pay a visit to the year 1995 to talk about some of the music that was released that year. Anthony gives us the lowdown on the metal and prog scene at the time; Stephanie shares stories from her time at Virgin Records; Rob catches us up on the electronic scene, Alan fills us in on what a few legacy acts are getting up to at this point in their career; and the whole gang talks about the battle for radio supremacy between the two big BritPop bands. During the discussion we cover albums by Oasis, Blur, Pulp, Prince, Pink Floyd, Aimee Mann, Matthew Sweet, The Chemical Brothers, and Shaggy, debuts by Garbage, Natalie Merchant, Jill Sobule, and The Foo Fighters, and the juggernaut that was Jagged Little Pill.  As always, follow along with this exploration of 1995 with our handy-dandy Spotify Playlist! These are some of our faves -- what about yours? Is there an album from 1995 that you love that we didn't mention?
