In the early 90s, Scandinavia and in particular Norway had a lot of kids who hated everything, but they didn’t just sit around being haters, they formed black metal bands, burned down churches, killed each other and made only the best t-shirt designs ever!

The 70’s was the best time to be a rock star. You had millions of dollars thrown at you, plush hotel suites, and crates of drugs. Platform spoke to two women who were there - Bebe Buell and Morgana Welch - to find out how exactly it was possible to fancy men in flares.

Thanks a lot The Smiths. We’re going to blame you for a nation of bedwetting boys and their guitars, trying to be sexy about their feelings and emotions. Glasvegas daddies’ never loved them, White Lies are obsessed with death and Bloc Party have been taken ill with a bad case of the whine flu. We’ve got damp shoulders from all those indie-band tears.

Platform doesn’t understand trends. Most just look like the girl was dressed by Stevie Wonder, puked down herself and drilled her own forehead. Ever open-minded we conducted some highly scientific research.
