Does Citranella Work On Dogs

If there are Nostalgic 60's (with all references to the Beatles, new wave, world 62), 70's (with psychedelia, hippies, drugs), and 80's (music with synthesizers, rock latino, hairstyles quirky), we could say that I am nostalgic for the past decade: The decade of the 90's



Worldwide, Germany was reunified, the Cold War had ended and the Soviet Union had disintegrated (verse left me without effort.) Accordingly, the U.S. became the first world power, which, with at imperialism under President George Bush Sr., would enter the Gulf War with the alleged intention of stopping the development of chemical and biological weapons that Saddam was creating, but in the subsequent government of his son ... the evil George W. Bush, it would reflect the primary objective ... oil.

Chile was not absent of change that brought this new decade. After 17 years living under the dictatorship, returned to democracy, which brought a huge social change ... people no longer felt oppressed by the military regime, which helped transform the way we think of future generations to a more light with fewer concerns and restrictions ... Reflecting this, is the increase in delinquency, violence in the stadiums, and premature sex ... things that the government was not the case sir XD (height).

Although, I would not experience a concho the early years of the decade (almost all the music from that time I like), no doubt that the 90's was the decade dominated by so-called "alternative rock" . Several groups appeared breaking all the schemes outlined above, either as the abuse of synthesizers in the 80's, or a musical line defined in the metal.

The beginnings of alternative rock occurred in the 80's with bands like The Pixies, Sonic Youth and REM, which, heavily influenced the bands of the 90's. and also would success in this decade.



From Seattle, the grunge took over the world. This term, was actually invented by the media and MTV to label the sound of these bands (as in reality, except that lived in the same city, their sound was huge differences from one another).
Nirvana, led by its charismatic frontman and songwriter Kurt Cobain, with their impressive album Nevermind (1991), influenced by his mentors Melvins, Meet Puppets and punk music,



was

the group that opened the way to the mainstream of many bands in the city, including:
Pearl Jam(Ten, 1991), grupo con influencias de grupos de los 60's y 70's, que contaba con integrantes de un proyecto anterior junto a Chris Cornell de Soundgarden, llamado temple of the dog.



Alice in Chains, que había debutado en 1990 con su disco Facelift con claras influencias de KISS y de la música Metal, pero fue en 1992, que logró mayor masividad gracias a su obra maestra, Dirt y Soundgarden por su parte, era una de las bandas más longevas, con estructuras musicales más complejas, la cual fue con Batmotorfinger, 1991, que logró difusión mediática, pero fue más con Superunknown(1994), que logró el éxito comercial, principalmente the topic Black Hole Sun.

Also, this movement, other cities added bands such as Stone Temple Pilots
, San Diego, California and their album Core (1992) which had great success with songs distinguished as Plush, Creep or Sex Type Thing, or Hole, led by Courtney Love, wife of Kurt Cobain, and possibly the dog that killed him (if q did not commit suicide).




Kurt Cobain's death in 1994 marked a before and after in the music, was the last great figure of rock types comparable to the likes of John Lennon, Freddy Mercury or Jim Morrison. This event gave inicio a que las bandas insignes del "grunge", desaparecieran poco a poco(la única que sobrevivió fue Pearl Jam).

Posteriormente, aparecieron nuevos exponentes, del denominado "Postgrunge", además de grupos que no habian podido resaltar por el boom del grunge. Ejemplo de estos fueron bandas como Smashing Pumpkins, liderados por Billy Corgan, con discazos como Siamese Dream(1993), o su obra maestra Mellon Collie and the infinites Sadness(1995), Foo Fighters, liderados por el exbaterista de Nirvana, Dave Growl o Silverchair, denominados los nuevos Nirvana, con su album Frogstomp, provenientes de Australia.



Otros bandas que tambien destacaron en la década, were those combining styles like funk and rap with rock and metal, like Rage Against the Machine with their self-titled album mix of hard rock and hip-hop with lyrics anticapitalist, Faith No More, led by Mr. Mike Patton , 4 discs, equally excellent and very different from one another, Red Hot Chili Peppers, who were one of the most commercially successful bands, with their albums Blood Sugar Magic (1991), and Californication (1999) and Mr Bungle, the Mike Patton side project, managed influences of jazz, funk, death metal, electronica, Arabic music, techno, among others, which made him one of the most original and unique bands of the decade (later, slipknot, copy the use of masks)




Also, there were groups with an unclassifiable and very own sound, which drew tremendous discs. Shows that, were the group Tool, and the vocalist's side project called A Perfect Circle.
Another great band was led by Les Claypool Primus, one of the best bassists in the world. It was characterized by the prominence of the bass, sarcastic lyrics, bizarre and very funny videos.

Kyuus also emerged, a band that would lay the foundation along with Monster Magnet, the so-called "Stoner Rock" strongly influenced by the sound of Black Sabbath. From the ashes this group, would one of the best bands of today, Queens of the Stone Age.



Nine Inch Nails, led by Trent Reznor, another group was innovative because it showed that they could rock and electronic music using synthesizers as main elements, and leaving the guitar on the 2nd level. This paved the way for bands like White Zombie, Marilyn Manson and Rammstein, among others.

of England, though his music had a resurgence with the so-called Brit-pop bands like Blur or Oasis, the highlight was Radiohead. Initially, his music was influenced by grunge, but then end up getting their own sound, which would be reflected in his most acclaimed album, OK Computer (1997)

Regarding Metal at the beginning of the decade, Metallica dominated world with his 5th album titled "Metallica", which included classics like Enter Sandman, Nothing Else Mathers and The Unforgiven. This album had a much more melodic than their previous albums, and therefore went on to sell millions of copies worldwide.

Megadeth however, in the early 90's, with its more stable training, drew a masterpiece mix of technique, speed, and complex structures: Rust in Peace. Later, in 1992, following the footsteps of Metallica, the market would take Countdown to Extinction, an album with a more accessible but no less good, which had the band's anthem: Symphony of Destruction.



Slayer, meanwhile, in 1990, drew one of his best albums, Seasons in the Abyss, the perfect blend of speed and violence of Reign in Blood, + the song South of Heaven. For its part, Anthrax in 1990 took in Time, a good album, and then went on to play appearing on Married with children, and participating in the song Bring the Noise alongside rappers Public Enemy.

Also in 1990 (that year was that of God), Pantera drew to market an album titled Cowboys from Hell, and 2 years after Vulgar Display of Power, which compel them to be the most successful band of metal 90's, with a fresh sound, but at the same time full of power, thanks to the strength of the voice of Phil Anselmo, and his guitar technique, Dimebag Darrell (RIP).

Iron Maiden, failed to reap the successes in the 80's and this decade was simply to forget to albums very irregular as No Prayer for the Dying, Fear of the dark, or very bad as X-Factor and Virtual XI. These 2 last, did not have the vocalist who had been more stable, Bruce Dickinson, who had decided to start a solo career.

For its part, the Gods of Metal, Judas Priest drew in 1990, which would be the best album of his career, "Painkiller", which grabbed Thrash influences, to be simply devastating. But after that, its lead singer, Rob Halford, would be leaving the band, which would leave the band on the 2nd level during the decade.

In Chile, the 80's belonged to the prisoners, without a doubt the most representative group of rock 90's were all three, but without leaving behind some as Chancho en Piedra, who also shone with her own lights. In the metal, Dorso, the Pera Cuadra, was consolidated group level.






Among the most notorious national sport, Colo Colo won the Copa Libertadores 1991, the only international title made by a Chilean team in history (after 2 more would come, the recopa and American in 1992). And for the qualifiers for France 98, after the punishment imposed by FIFA at the Maracana in 1989, Chile enjoyed seeing all our selection, sorting to global rivals beating people at home, and a year later, playing the World Cup and going to the knockout stage with the famous duo scoring Za-Sa (Zamorano-Salas). For its part, in tennis, 1998 was the year of Marcelo "Chino" Rios, who managed the feat of being the only Chilean athlete to become "Number 1 in the world", stripped of that place of honor to the then unbeatable Pete Sampras .

On TV, TV remember Professor Rosa, as More Music, Cachureos, Maravillozoo, Time is Money, Video Loco, Plan Z, Hugo, Extrajovenes, or some which are still the screen until the day today, such as Good morning to all, or Venegas.



The cartoon showed a change in the discourse that followed his predecessors, and now many of them opted for a more adult audience: An example of this are programs whose had a lot of social criticism, sarcasm or arguments very bizarre and strange, like The Simpsons, which were the most popular series of the decade, turning Homer into a pop icon, Ren and Stimpy, did not enjoy much popularity, but had quite bizarre situations and unusual, which taken to be a series of worship;

Beavis and Butt-head was a criticism that the youth spent watching MTV, watching videos, and because of that, there were mines (they gave in their own MTV), and South Park, was satire and criticism itself into everything: religion, politics, people, religion, etc..

From Japan, there was a massive invasion of their programs encouraged the West, in the late 80's, starting with films like Akira and then the series Robotech, Captain Tsubasa, Saint Seiya, Slam Dunk , Evangelion, Dragon Ball Z among the most popular (especially the latter, came to have a global impact).



A level of technology, the 90's was the decade with the greatest progress and development: If, in the 70's, the first computers were large machines that occupied an entire room, now were of a smaller size, accessible the pockets of individuals, which introduced more data storage capacity, more powerful and better scheduled, also appeared online, a system to communicate and obtain information throughout the world, also was the decade, they started to massively and to develop cell phones and replaced the tapes, by Cd's.

With regard to video games development in this decade in terms of graphics and gameplay was incredibly large: At the beginning of the decade was the rivalry between Sega and Super Nintendo, then came more powerful consoles, N64 and playstation and late of the decade Dreamcast and Playstation 2. Arcade games also had their impact, in games like Street Fighter, King of Fighters, Mortal Kombat and Metal Slug and more. For PC, such as Doom, Quake, among others.




With regard to fashion, people chose to use costumes, hairstyles and more decent and normal, with less paint, less ombreras, that in the 80's.

In this decade, expanded the existing urban tribes in previous decades.

fashion "grunge", mainly consisted of ripped jeans, lumberjack shirts, long hair unkempt and indifferent attitude of life ... it jumped in the weas.



The metalheads, with their clothing came from the 80's, which included black T-shirts of their favorite, jeans, jackets mezklilla, long hair and aggressive but not violent.



Punks, were characterized by their haircuts to the Mohawk, chains, leather pants, leather jackets, boots and aggressive attitude that led them to the diagonal pa butchering buy their food (wine and bread).



The Goths were characterized by makeup, black clothes and depressed attitude.



rappers or hip-hoppers (hi-hoppers as sheguel says), here in Chile is characterized by polerones dress with hat, baggy jeans, chains, Flaites pose as well or in some cases was not necessary.



The Skaters, characterized simply by his cap backward, and his skateboard.

With respect to popular games, I remember that at school, or friends had various forms of entertainment: "The polquitas, the pogs, collecting albums and play sheet, the tartaramusa, the Soo, bronze horse," the 25 ", hidden, ringworm, poison bottle, countries, killing ... Those were the days.

the late 90's, was the beginning of the shit in general ... Pop, Rap and dominate Aggro Metal international music. In Chile, Cumbia their war of colors, then the Brazilian invasion and now the shit Axe repetitive and degrading the reggeton, Emergence of urban tribes more and more gay people as pokemon emo, and the being exists. The TV is full of crap with zero content and programs Mekano, Red, and programs with cauines Farándula models with soccer, football and alcohol, as well as presenting programs to more violence on TV, more sex. The violent political and Gordis Bush and his incompetence to rule, are other factors that make Chile even go through a good economic times, no one is benefited, just the usual. Teenagers now with the advancement of technology is being recorded entertain having oral sex in the streets, or shouting sweets and then upload to the Internet for all to see. And the football team, with failure after failure to go to global.

the end, I prefer the words my father told me some time ago: "When you get a certain age, and see that your youth is gone, and there are new generations, reject the new trends and always think that all the past was better. ... It happened to me will happen to you too. "

be that I'm getting old.
