About this listen

This week on The Vinyl Curriculum, Logan and Jim spin back to the early 1990s — a transformative era when alternative rock broke through the mainstream and redefined the sound of a generation. From the gritty Seattle grunge scene to jangly college radio hits and boundary-pushing indie acts, we trace how bands like Nirvana, Pearl Jam, R.E.M., and The Smashing Pumpkins shaped music history and influenced countless artists that followed.

We’ll unpack the cultural movements, sonic experimentation, and rebellious energy that fueled this alt-rock explosion — plus share personal stories and deep-cut recommendations you won’t want to miss.
