It was the best of times. It was the worst of times. In terms of design aesthetic on the World Wide Web, it was definitely the worst of times. For anyone who's ever had a "home page" with a counter, a web ring, an animated .gif for wallpaper or a tilde in the URL, My So-Called Band have a treat for you. They've put their html where their flannel is and put their official page on Angelfire. (Geocities = sadface.) Fire up the Netscape Navigator and surf on over to mysocalledband.angelfire.com!
Behold the centered everything (with no defined width), the giant photos, the Fresh Prince! Behold the web-safe color palette! Behold The Cranberries MIDI file on auto-play! Oh shit! It's not as egregiously '90s-core as the Sub Pop Cybersex digital promo page, but it captures the design zeitgeist of the era pretty convincingly. Kinda like their band does, see? Speaking of, they're playing Feb. 26 at Mercy Lounge. Feel free to say, "Whatever." I wonder what kind of shenanigans Blossom and Six are gonna get into tonight!

This website needs unnecessary frames. Bonus points if it's a header frame and you don't turn off the scroll bar.
