Alternative Rock One Hits of the 90s
 
I'm fucking sick of that "the buzz" compilation that keeps getting hyped with worthless garbage disguised as music by people who think alternative means wearing jeans with a rip in them.

Anyways, The 90s was a fucking great decade for alternative music, so many great bands finally got exposure that deserved it after all that time. I want this thread to be a discovery ground for those bands from that decade that got a moment in the sun. NOT alt bands with many huge hits i.e. nirvana, pearl jam, smashing pumpkins. No, see I have this vision of like a 90s nuggets boxset focused in on all these little bands many of you have probably forgotten or maybe never even heard.

So lets look back fondly and reminisce about that wonderful decade.

I would listen to it for five dollars (i.e., that would be my charge for the service). If I could skip the Blind Melon, that is. $50, if I had to include it.

"No Rain" appeals to the whole hippy undertone of 90's alternative whatever.

Shit sucks.

You people are the worst generation after the baby boomers.

Glice 01.18.2009 06:39 AM

Wonder Stuff anyone?

That Blind Melon track is truly dire. I clicked on the link because I'd assumed I'd not heard it, but it's one of those songs so insidiously bad that you completely forgot you've ever heard it.

Are you referring to the Helium I posted? Seriously, three degrees of fanboyism right here.
