This masterpiece was released OTD, April 8th, in 1977. Not only is this record one of the best albums ever (IMO), it’s in the conversation of one of the best debut albums of all time. #theclash

Had a great time speaking w/ @stacilayne.bsky.social about my book, SLACKER - 1991, Teen Spirit Angst, and the Generation It Created. We discussed the early 90s grunge takeover of music & culture, the importance of lyrics in music, mental health, & more. #podcast open.spotify.com/episode/3cGh...

My latest from “Slackers Unite” on Substack. open.substack.com/pub/robjanic...

“All the power's in the hands Of people rich enough to buy it While we walk the street Too chicken to even try it” - White Riot/The Clash One of the many reasons they earned the title of “The only band that matters”.

Jeff Ament: “I have amazing memories of making that record. Most days, Chris [Cornell] would come in with a new song. We would wrap our heads around it, & it was so easy & free that it almost felt like it was somebody else flowing us the songs. It came from such a good place, too.” #jeffamentmonth

Call me crazy, but when a convicted felon KNOWN for cheating people, scamming people, and having to close his Foundation and University for fraud says he wants to go to Fort Knox to see if "someone stole the gold," my Spidey sense starts tingling. You can't trust that fucker.

Why would you ever give up? #music #create open.substack.com/pub/robjanic...

Had a great time with Eric Senich on his Booked on Rock Podcast discussing all things #90s, #grunge, and my book, SLACKER. #podcast youtu.be/XwGcDFHeZwc?...

Great to see that Ozzy is well enough to play a final show. And that he’s getting a ton of great support for the send off. 🤘

My latest piece on Substack highlights Tracy Bonham’s contributions to SLACKER… substack.com/@robjanicke/... #90s #music

Exciting news alert! My book, SLACKER is going global! This was slated to happen late ‘25, but due to higher than expected demand from outside the US & online booksellers, it’s happening now. My site has signed copies ready to ship in the US but you can now preorder anywhere books are sold!

One of the things that resonated so much with fans of grunge & alternative in the 90s was the merging of music & message. Convictions matter… #eddievedder #pearljam #90s #unplugged

“The best songs are the ones that make you feel something. When things weren’t easy for me, growing up, I felt music saved my life. I had absolutely nothing else besides music. So if we’re gonna play or write a song, you know, write about something that means something.” - Eddie Vedder #eddievedder

The first shipment of books has arrived! As Ice Cube once said, “Today was a good day”! #books #author #writer #slacker

The Beatles released what would eventually become one of the most influential albums of all time OTD in 1967. #thebeatles #influence

A Gen X book about the underground music and culture from the mid-80s through the 90s. The collective experiences from our generation led to amazing music that’s still alive today! #genx #music www.robjanicke.com

Since election he’s elevated to $348 billion and he wants MORE… He wants to own a galaxy… by 2029….the mortgage on minds is not enough lol

A masterpiece.

And never will!

Wouldn’t mind a new record in the near future!

Now that my book is finished and will be available soon, I’ve started writing on Substack. My main focus is 90s music and culture so if that’s your thing, or if you just like reading the thoughts of Gen X mind once in a while, it’s free to subscribe & read. substack.com/@robjanicke?...

I haven’t seen one jar of paste here yet…that’s a very good thing! #bluesky

Joe was one of a kind! Need more like him these days.

Bad Religion released Against the Grain, OTD (11/23) in 1990. Adding to one of the most important catalogs ever. #punk “Modern man, evolutionary betrayer, Modern man, ecosystem destroyer, Modern man, destroy yourself in shame, Modern man, pathetic example of earth's organic heritage” - Modern Man

Works for me! #books

Noel and I disagree about his take on “people who write books” 😝
