The 70s

Those born in the 1990’s, and maybe also late 1980s, will most likely be unfamiliar with 70s music as a background to their teenage and adolescent years. So, it’s a bit intriguing to see so many 90s youngsters nowadays picking up on the 70s vibe...

Is it the colorful drug-induced, laid back, fuzzy, meth-addicted warmth of the era that drag them?



What makes the retro-70s momentum so intriguing for me, is that it is now seemed to be mixed with death-obsessed and crude anti-Christian or pseudo-psychedelic and occult themes that turned the 70s ‘innocence’ into all out ‘transgressions’...

What a lovely comeback for the era indeed! Especially if it is heralded by talented musicians who do know how to handle their instruments, like the hard rockin bluesy US’ Tia Carrera and UK’s doomy Sabbath-esque Uncle Acid and The Deadbeats.
