the unplugged format generally made songs a lot worse than their studio versions. it usually just deflated them, and seemed kind of pointless. i remember boomer critics going berserk over eric clapton's lifeless unplugged version of Layla, and thinking that the critics were wrong, and that it just sucked.

the man who sold the world was basically played on The Martin acoustic-electric guitar iirc, and everyone was like "I'm going to allow this."

"A surprising number of famous alternative musicians were not representative working-class Americans. The alternative scene contained lots of art-school kids, college-radio people, suburban middle-class kids, children of professionals, and people immersed in bohemian subcultures.

Being materially comfortable can actually produce more existential angst, not less. If your problem is "I might starve," your songs tend to be about concrete problems. If food, shelter, and basic security are assumed, you have enormous mental bandwidth for:

"Who am I?"

"Is modern life authentic?"

"Why am I alienated?"

"Why do I hate myself?"

"Why does everything feel fake?"

This is basically Maslow's hierarchy turned into an alternative-rock industry."

Nobody was going to make an iconic 1994 alternative record called:

"My Parents Have a Reasonably Stable Marriage and I Got a Good Job at Hewlett-Packard."

Millions of Gen Xers were perfectly content. They were going to barbecues, buying Nintendo games, watching Seinfeld, getting married, going fishing, and listening to Hootie & the Blowfish.

It seems like the pretentiousness of 90s rock has all but disappeared.

Once and a while white people will try to incorporate its values into rap music, but it never seems to stick as it just seems stupid to talk about what a genius Kendrick Lamar is for going "blip blap bloom!"
