Hot on the heels of the recent re-post here of an Observer article from 9 years ago, the South Bend Power 90s blog is featured prominently in The Observer today! There's a full spread highlighting the blog and the 90s scene, as well as commentary on the decline of indie music on campus in the 2000s. Head on over and check it out!
