What's Interesting About Romo, And We've Been Thinking About It Too Much, Is That The Only Reason It Didn't Work Was That It Was Too Soon.
With Britpop still in its last high, and grunge well-killed, it came off as hollow, with shit bands, and a top-down cultural journalist response to nothing.
But it's '80s everywhere now. The same sort of social flinch for moving music backwards. Possibly even more embarrassing than anything Romo ever tried to do.
If they'd waited until now, they would've made millions.
