niceness in the nineties: An Indie Music Memoir by Jim Miller
My rating: 2 of 5 stars
Jim Miller's (Trash Can School, Black Angel's Death Song) first-hand accounts of the rise of Sub Pop, grunge and such bands as Possum Dixon, Hole, L7, Love Battery, Gits, and more is a quick and interesting read to a 90s scenester like myself. However, Jim never goes deep to analyze, sufficing only to summarize the years of shows, recording, touring, etc. in a name-dropping chronology. For those were outsiders then, this book will not offer insight. I did an interview with the author in 2011.
