Yes, you’re old. On Saturday, great American institution Sub Pop Records celebrated its honest-to-god 25th birthday with a multi-stage blowout in its Seattle hometown, with a history-spanning lineup (Mudhoney to METZ, Father John Misty to Built to Spill) and a beer tent or three to soften the blow. We took pictures. Congrats to the label for being old enough to rent a car, and many of the label’s earliest patrons for being old enough to buy a car for their teenaged children.
