American indie rock has gone lots of places in the past 34 years, but I wouldn’t say it’s better now than it was in 1991, when Jawbreaker and Jawbox released their split 7″. Maybe there’s something to that. Maybe we need to cut it out with all the Frog bands or whatever and go back to Jaw bands. We’ve already got LA’s Jawdropped proving that it can be done, so now it’s time for everyone else to step up.
