The Wonder Years were new to me, but I loved the video so will have to do a bit more digging on their back catalogue. (Pool Kids next.)

Might have to check out the wallpapers as well, especially given these hit my inbox while I was sitting compiling a 'top five NY bands' list, for a future chapter of my music themed novel, serialised at https://challenge69.substack.com

The list I settled on was:

5) QTY, 4) Television, 3) Velvet Underground, 2) Talking Heads, and 1) The Strokes (just can't get more New York than them!) - what would yours be?

If it's a list that resonates with you, then please consider giving my book a try, I think you'd love it.

Glad you liked Wonder Years!

Love the NY bands challenge. In trying to stick with more contemporary bands, I'd pick (in no order) Strokes, LCD Soundsystem, Vampire Weekend, Battles, and Grizzly Bear.
