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.

Heheh. Some of those are good, and some of those are sooooo not good.

I would buy that album, but for only like, 5 dollars, and no more.

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. |

blind melon? what the fuck, why didnt you put 4 non blonds on it as well and nickelback...
what is the fascination with blind melon...they were appalling.... |

"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. |
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. |
Did someone say Polvo?
Because I think I heard someone say Polvo http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=rlV8O_1n1-M |
Awesome, I wanted to hear the Flaming Shits but I got Soul Assylum.

i rather listen to candlebox than sebadoh or folk repulsion any day of the year.
blind melon and soul asylum, while listened in my youth, i now find cringeworthy and awful. by the way, what thread in this forum isn't a celebration of the indie dork 90's? but i guess it needs some cleansing: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=2UeTsyVPIfQ |
