#41 / 90s Guitar Bands - Wang #9
Episode 41 is dedicated to the Nirvana album 'In Utero'. The historical context of this album will always mean it is Kurts final gift to the world, join us as we go through the album and discuss why In Utero is such a masterpiece!
Welcome to The Stupid And Contagious podcast, a podcast focused on bringing you interviews with the bands that defined a generation!
That generation grew up in the 90s with the Grebo bands (Senseless Things, PWEI, Neds Atomic Dustbin, Mega City Four, The Wonderstuff and many more) on the UK side of the pond and quickly joined by the grunge bands (Nirvana, Mudhoney, Alice In Chains, Soundgarden and many more) on the US side of the pond.
We are not limiting ourselves to these genres though, we will chart the guitar bands from all genres throughout the decade that was the 1990s.
If you are into 1990s guitar music or just a music lover in general then this is the podcast for you!

#40 / 90s Guitar Bands - FMB (The Next Big Thing)
Before 'Big Brother', before 'Love Island' there was the first fly on the wall, reality tv show! It was called 'The Next Big Thing', remember it? We do! It followed the fortunes of an upcoming uk indie band 'FMB' & it's a fantastic time capsule of what being in a struggling band in the 90s was like. Landlines, buying vans, ringing venues, it's all there to see on the doc (link below) so we got Roger and Milo on from FMB to talk about the doc and the band and what happened to the band after the cameras stopped rolling!

Customer Reviews
Nearly docked a point…
Only listened to Senseless things and FNM so far and for a 45 year old, lifelong indie fan, I don’t think I’ll get a better music podcast. My only gripe is that you’ve skipped talking about the more difficult albums in the interviews. TCOB from Senseless Things and Album of the Year from FNM. I’m always interested to hear how things were for the bands during the less popular years. But I decided it wasn’t enough to dock a point
Cracking 90s Music Reminisce
Great listen this. The lads delve into all those (mostly) U.K. 90s indie bands you remember or knew and forgot about. Brings back so many memories.
What a bunch of wangers
If you’re a fan of the Lighthouse Family then this is the podcast for you, it’s a one stop shop for all you need to know about the 90s chart topping duo… I genuinely love this podcast, it’s like you’re sitting in the pub with your mates when a member of your favourite 90s band comes in and joins you at the table for a chat, the accompanying playlist is a real nice touch too.
