Were you an original indie kid? Do you count yourself as part of the (best) Generation known as Generation X? Do you remember being able to smoke inside pubs and clubs and buy a pint for a quid? Jumpers for goal posts?
Then design studio, Dorothy, have created the perfect print for you as part of their stunning stamp collection series. Starting in 1984 with the self titled debut album by The Smiths and ending with the 1999 Flaming Lips's pysch-pop album The Soft Bulletin, this is a poster that will give you crushing nostalgia for your 90's youth. Whether you loved the alternative scene of Sonic Youth and the Pixies, your heart belongs to the Goth side of the Cure, you were wearing baggy jeans in Madchester dancing to the Stone Roses and Primal Scream, glorifying grunge with Nirvana or embracing Brit Pop with Blur, this cool graphic take on their's and many more albums will inspire you to pull out the old vinyl and sink into some late 80's, early 90's nostalgia in the safety of your own home. Probably with your teenage kids looking on cringing. Here's to the days before Tik Tok!
Each stamp features a graphic inspired by the album (or tracks on the album), the date of release, the label it was released on and its running time.
