Greatest band of all time, no question. I also saw it recently. Not bad. Really went down hill once Kate McKinnon came into it and I like Kate McKinnon. Also ES won the faceoff!

Noeller Posted September 26, 2021 Report Share Posted September 26, 2021 For those of us who came of age in the 90s..... It was everything. Almost as important as The Hip. Wanna-B-Fanboy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll never forget the first time I heard Nevermind at a party and I was like "what, this stuff is popular now?" Everything changed after that.

Soundgarden for me too. 1991 was an incredible year in music. Noeller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bustamente Posted September 26, 2021 Report Share Posted September 26, 2021 I will be in the minority here but I hated all those so called grunge bands and the whole grunge era, force my genre underground where is still thrived but was never the same, one exception I do own 2 Alice in Chains cd's.

Superunknown was a really big deal for me. Got that from the old BMG Music Club 12 Cd's for a buck program... Ha ha. Spoonman and Black Hole Sun were such a big deal. I eventually discovered Alice In Chains and PJ... All just so so so important for us 90s kids. Again, not as important as The Hip, but it's up there. Green Day and Offspring worth mentioning, too... A really big deal. JCon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigg jay Posted September 26, 2021 Report Share Posted September 26, 2021 My music world changed prior to Teen Spirit: I did enjoy the stuff coming out of the PNW though but Nirvana wasn't my preferred band. Soundgarden and Pearl Jam were my favorites with Alice in Chains also being in the mix. Wanna-B-Fanboy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wanna-B-Fanboy Posted September 26, 2021 Report Share Posted September 26, 2021 Pearl Jam - Black. Sound Garden - Room a Thousand Years Wide. White Zombie - Starface RATM - Killing in the Name of. All mind blowing during my mid teens... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noeller Posted September 26, 2021 Report Share Posted September 26, 2021 I would probably put Tragically Hip - Trouble At The Henhouse, Offspring - Smash, and Green Day - Dookie as the most important albums in my high school. Honourable mention to OLP - Naveed and Clumsy and The Wallflowers - Bringing Down The Horse.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the longest song title ever - "Several species of small furry animals gathered togeather in a cave and grooving with a Pict " Losing Syd ( from the band ) definatly impacted the band and it's music and was an inspiration for multiple songs.

Actually I am the same age as Johnzo, but grunge in general never did anything for me. I did like Pearl Jam, but I didn’t get the whole “angst of a generation” vibe, and I thought the “Kurt Cobain as the troubled messiah” narrative was weird. Plus I could never understand what his lyrics were. I was more influenced by the late 80’s, and more into the top 40 stuff rather than alternative rock. U2 was obviously big for me.

Noeller Posted September 27, 2021 Report Share Posted September 27, 2021 (edited) I've never understood the crazy fandom that exists for U2. I mean I don't mind them... The main stuff off Joshua Tree is obviously important.... But other than that... Eh. It's the same with bands like Coldplay and Radiohead.... I will never understand it.

TrueBlue4ever Posted September 27, 2021 Report Share Posted September 27, 2021 (edited) Honestly, U2 has not put anything at all of worth out since 2004, and Bono’s preaching actually detracts from their music for me, but they do know how to put on a concert. Coldplay is in the same vein. Again it is all personal choice, I don’t need edgy defiance in my band, just give me an enjoyable tune. I don’t need a band to be more than that to appeal to me. And Fully Completely was my Hip album of choice. Edited September 27, 2021 by TrueBlue4ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
