Days Of The New Smashing Pumpkins Alice In Chains Pearl Jam Bush I sometimes find myself listening to Nirvana's MTV Unplugged album too. The Man Who Sold The World is a spectacular cover.

Out of all the Seattle bands, SG is my favorite. Badmotorfinger is just kick-ass, though Superunknown and Down On The Upside are awesome too.

That's everybody's problem.

You might have seen them on MTV if you were around in '93/'94.

Cyclop have 9 years Group: The Precinct Joined: Dec 14, 2002	Ahh yes. 'Grunge' was my music of choice growing up, and most bands I liked in the early '90s I still listen to now. The biggest for me was Alice in Chains. Of course I dug on Nirvana and Soundgarden. I was happy to see Days of the New mentioned. Funnily enough I didn't like Pearl Jam as a teen, but became more appreciative of them as an adult. Other mentions: STP Screaming Trees Mudhoney Mother Love Bone and even though it could be debated whether or not they fit this list: Failure

Carry on. Group: Members Joined: Apr 4, 2007	Way to make a shtty remark about something you don't like in its topic that you don't* have to be in, Uno! I am a grunge fan, but I've never really liked Nirvana. The incident with their frontman was bad, but that isn't a definitive reason to say you "like" 'em. I just think they are over-rated. As for STP, I really don't think they are grunge at all. Yes their Core album did sound that way, but its compostition was far different. Then they sounded more pop-ish through the years. So basically, this is my opinion: In grunge Nirvana is Led Zeppelin, Pearl Jam is Green Day, and STP are, well, themselves. This post has been edited by TheJonesy on Saturday, Feb 2 2008, 21:33
