I admit, I don’t know much about 90’s indie that I’d like to (or, want to). But I recently got into Built to Spill, one of the essential names of the 90’s scene. You can obviously hear that Built to Spill gave a lot of these young bands a nice style to run with, but they can’t contend with the OG’s. Today, I’m posting the very song that got me into them.

“Without me there’s nothing,
I’m the only thing that dies.
If it came down to your life or mine,
I’d do the stupid thing
And let you keep on living”
One of the most unique confessions of love I’ve ever heard. Doug Martsch, you crazy for this one!

More Built to Spill from the album There’s Nothing Wrong With Love. This album, released in 1994, is truly a classic of indie rock and gets better and better each time I listen to it.
Even more Built to Spill?

Upon Ryan’s suggestion, I downloaded Built To Spill’s album There’s Nothing Wrong With Love. Although I had a single by Built To Spill, I was happy I decided to explore them further. This song has not only become my favorite off the album, but one of my favorites songs I’ve heard recently, and now wakes me up as my alarm every morning
