Hi – in case you missed it, Pitchfork did a big indie rock thing this week. They ranked the 100 greatest indie rock albums and asked a bunch of people (including me) to weigh in on what indie rock actually is.

Anyway, it got me thinking about what indie rock meant to me when I first got into it in the early ’90s, why I loved the stuff I loved, and why I ignored so much of it. So that’s what today’s episode is about.

Enjoy!
