SubPop was the Sun Records of the 80s and 90s.

Enormous impact on popular music.

Velocity Girl’s Copacetic and Sunny Day Real Estate’s Diary. Yummmm.

Agree although I was more partial to Estrus and Sympathy For The Record Industry.

When people look at who Sympathy recorded (Beck, Hole, White Stripes...) it’s kind of surprising they don’t “exist” in the historical record of the 1990s. And those bands I listed weren’t even my “go to” bands for the label.
