I was existing in another music world during their time. Tiger Trap, Heavenly, the roster of K, Slumberland, Kill Rock Stars, Little Teddy and all that twee, indie pop stuff. "Pop Songs Your Boyfriend's Too Stupid To Know About" is a song title that comes to mind. I guess I wasn't doing much raging at that time.
I remember that I used to tape a radio show that a couple of college students had on a public radio station late at night (I think from 1 AM to 3 AM) on either Friday or Saturday. It was mostly grunge & punk, but one week they had a friend visiting and played all indie pop & twee. I probably still have that cassette in my box of random mixtapes.
@@RekkidTalk Some girl I penpalled with named Elisa sent me this great tape that was full of twee, dream pop and shoegaze and that helped get me onto that track. Her boyfriend was in Boyracer and another group or two. The tape was loaded with stuff from little labels from around the world. It felt like a breath of fresh air at that time.

The world needs a Rage Against The Machine/Beat Happening split single.
