C90 - 1990 was the start of a new decade when the Indie scene was dominated by Manchester and the arrival of Shoegaze and with nods towards grunge and what would become known as Britpop, plus hints of a proto-laddism peering out from between the cracks in a post-Smiths aesthetic, the sound of 1990, it could be argued, set the tone for the remainder of the decade. “C90” A piece of history, that.the sound of a country putting the hard-biting 1980s behind it, embracing the Daisy Age and looking to move forwards.
