But he was highly influential in inventing the sound and aesthetic of grunge. Along with the Pixies and a few other proto grunge bands they really invented the foundational tone palette that became grunge. They're like a 171 for historical importance and a 140 for actual musical talent. Cool band for hipsters and weirdos and nerds but I don't think that many people actually listen to them unless you are Gen X and your whole life is grunge. They are properly rated as a Builder but not necessarily a tune factory.

It's also kind of charming they seem halfway between 80s glam and grunge. Like they woke up every morning and couldn't decide if they wanted to be GnR or STP. And somehow they were neither.

One hit wonders make me sad because you always have to wonder what would have been if they had TWO hits. The Verve were geniuses whose entire career was derailed by a Jew accountant who successfully stole millions from them and I think that broke the main guy spiritually. Verve Pipe another one hit wonder but it incredible. Sad they never got bigger they were really talented but could never put it all together. Live - Throwing Copper is a 10/10 album Eve 6 classic radio hit but not very influential. Semisonic did it better. Great makeout song though. Taproot - many others did this style better but I guess if you were a Korn diehard or you couldn't get Mushroom tickets you would inevitably go see them. Probably pretty cool at the time.

They got insanely lucky that they wrote one of the most famous songs of that era. Unlucky that a Jew stole all their gelt. But they never had a follow up. Big takeaway from the Oasis tour is that you gotta impress the people more than once. You know if you just do Wonderwall it's whatever but they really did have hit after hit after hit.

There is before and after they made The Resistance. imo Showbiz 6.5/10 - This is not their best work but it's really goofy and energetic and somehow enjoyable. Origin of Symmetry 8/10 - I love Bliss, New Born, Citizen Erased, Feeling Good, Plug In Baby, Micro Cuts. Really unique, original record. Absolution - incredible record 9/10 even though I prefer OOS more. Time is Running Out, Hysteria, Butterflies and Hurricanes, Sing for Absolution, Blackout, Stockholm Syndrome, Apocalypse Please. So many bangers. Black Holes and Revelations 10/10 record front to back. Only 1-2 weak songs mostly all bangers. Then the made The Resistance it's cheesy af I didn't care for it personally but admittedly there are some good songs on here. It just feels like the band changed so much and they started working with hip hop producers and shit. I began to not care about them after this. 2nd Law was not great but somehow significantly less bad that what would follow. Madness is still a keeper somehow. Then there's Drones and beyond I never listened to that crap except Mercy is a decent single but I almost never listen to it. Not sure how or why they kept going writing garbage like they did.

I don't know any other band like it. Everyone in the UK knows all their shit and 2% of Americans might know one Muse song. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5747387&forum_id=2Reputation#49081463) Date: July 8th, 2025 12:47 AM Author: Maroon legend There is a reason for this. It's because prior to Black Holes and Revelations, their first album on Warner, their songs were not promoted at all in the US. There's a DVD of their Absolution tour where they show them going from the Pyramid Stage at Glastonbury to a 200 person club in Cleveland. They had no label support from their indie label to promote their shit in the US. They first got famous in the US through Guitar Hero/Rock Band with Hysteria and Time is Running Out. But by that time Americans didn't care and never connected much with their first 3 albums. Even though Black Holes was on an American label it still took a long time to catch on. The Resistance was huge in the US though and that's when they first started playing NBA arenas and football stadiums here.

Years later she told me I shattered her heart and she spent months talking to her mom on the phone about me and crying. I hardly knew her. To be fair she looked a lot like my girlfriend at the time so I can see how there could have been a lot of jealousy, but I didn't really know her well and I think she pilled herself without me doing much of anything but existing.

I'm a huge fan. Obviously Chocolate Starfish was their best record. Most underrated track imo is Take A Look Around. I will admit under torture that I think they flamed out when they put out their 4th record and the lead single was a cover of Behind Blue Eyes. That signaled to me that they were cashed. I do think Fred was the weak link songwriting-wise. I wish the other guys had done something like Audioslave and gotten together with another singer but they were all so loyal to Fred. There is only so much rapping one can take in rock and it was the end of their run. Still a fan will never cuck on my love for LB.

And upon second glacne I see the thread title is like "90s-2010 alternative". But I read it as 1990-2000, and I think most people associate "alternative rock" with that decade. So loving Limp Bizkit and not really knowing Janes was just a huge tell that he came of age when he did, and 99% of the bands named above he would not really know, or would google in the moment. Nothing *wrong* with being whatever age you are. I would have to google 70s bands, or would write things like "Yeah I know one T. Rex song". But Janes Addiction is emblematic because they spearheaded the Gen-X "alternative" moment for a few years, not least through Lollapalooza drawing connecting points between shoegazers, greasy haired grungers, rappers, etc etc. Not to mention birthing other momentous things like Lilith Fair, assorted hippie festivals, re-booting Woodstock, etc. I wouldnt begrudge anyone hating Janes, even tho I like 3 of their albums a lot. But they must be confronted one way or another if youre writing about 90s alternative rock. So seeing them get only a slight nod and mention of their only radio song just told me that OP came of age much later. And tbf, old af people like me hated Limp Bizkit and Korn and such. I myself hate those bands. Im sure it has less to do with their merits as it does with age. It was what emerged when our heroes were dead or washed. No doubt hardcore Motley Crue fans fucking hate Nirvana for the same reason. Anyway, I am not knocking OP and my post was written inelegantly. But I guarantee he didnt see high school till the late 90s. And the massive influx of alt bands in the early 90s meant little to him because of this (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5747387&forum_id=2Reputation#49098218) Date: July 8th, 2025 2:53 PM Author: ultramarine lay (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5747387&forum_id=2Reputation#49083002) Date: July 8th, 2025 9:41 AM Author: thriller police squad menage Slowdive (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5747387&forum_id=2Reputation#49082022) Date: July 8th, 2025 12:13 PM Author: Maroon legend Songwriting is boring and the spacey vocals bother me.

Everything from Chuck Berry and the Doo Wop era in the 50s up until The Pixies and the Melvins and what would become grunge is all under one banner. Even New Wave is classic rock. But nothing that came after Nirvana can be considered classic rock, hence the reason we have words for this binary schism. Why does this bother you?

I would say they're somehow both properly rated and overrated at the same time. They started off as a popular boy band that got really famous for looking cool and being from New York. I think largely as songwriters they were not the best. It was a lot more about the fashion and the identity than the music. However, they were one of the biggest rock bands of their era and they did have at least one massive single. They were not completely talentless hacks. They just didn't write a lot of great songs and were always more famous than their actual output. Still they deserve consideration and I believe that they will get into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame based on their fame alone.

Their first two records were fire. I remember playing Lazy Eye in a guitar shop once on some guitar off the wall and a kyoot hapa hipster chick was floored. She ditched her boyfriend to cum watch me strum it and was in awe. This guy got really jealous and huffed and puffed. Or maybe I'm remembering it wrong. Maybe he was playing Lazy Eye and I was just flirtin' haha who remembers? I also liked Swoon I thought it had 3 great singles. Panic Switch was really peak alt rock/pop. But my favorite track was Substitution. Just really liked his strained voice and the melodies on this. It's also a captivating, unusual melody. Brian really knew how to write a banger. There weren't many alt rock bands making big hits in minor keys with heavy guitars at this time. They owned that space for a while. But Neck of the Woods was a let down and you could sense it was the end of Great Songwriting. I couldn't listen to that record and I felt like the jig was up.

I can't listen to endless soloing. Still they're somehow on the Mt. Rushmore of Metal. To be clear, I would probably put them below Slayer.

He was one of the most creative people who ever lived. He didn't just write songs he created a whole universe. He didn't just make art he lived it. I don't think he ever wrote a single song in a major key. He may have written the most negative hits of anyone in history. His entire discography is a downer and I don't think people bring that up enough. It's extremely unusual to almost never write a song in a major key and I can't think of another artist who did. In Bloom is almost in a major key but it's not, really. Kurt had the most negative energy of any star ever. And he wrote so many hits it's insane. Almost all of his songs are famous classics. What more can be said about him? He was a very weird guy and his death launched him to another level of infamy. He wasn't playing the same game as the rest of humanity. Pixies were great they were the first band to write pop songs with a grunge theme. They will always be the first movers in grunge pop. But in the long run they weren't incredible songwriters. They should be in the rock hall of fame and it's stupid that they're not. Pearl Jam is one of the greatest bands ever to write almost entirely in 1 4 5 progressions. Nearly all of their songs recycle the same chords over and over again. They were brilliant tunesmiths and deserve a lot of credit. But they also took the grunge sound and turned it into really cheesy pop music. They are sort of like The Eagles or something. I personally can listen to it but would often prefer not to. I'm not a hater but also not a die hard fan. I think they add something to the overall tapestry of grunge. What would life have been like without Pearl Jam? They will always just kind of be there in the background, for Gen Xers to delight over. They also have REALLY LONG INTROS.

Agreed the guitarist was a no show but still has one of the most famous riffs in grunge history. To be clear about PJ they are extremely talented and they were very creative within a limited canvass. They could write hooks for days. But they did nothing but cover the same territory over and over. They're not bad at all, but they do have a lot of haters because how many times can you listen to the Same Song. A Gen Xer I know loves PJ and The Eagles as the greatest ever so it makes sense that they would appeal to the same types of people. A lot of professional musicians hate on PJ though because it's a really limited box of tools to draw from.

It's a song that when lesser bands (Image Dragons) play at their show it's the best part of the show. That being said most of the rest of their stuff was twee and not very good. If you listen to their other hits they're not very good. Beetlebum, Park Life, Girls and Boys.. These songs kind of suck. They were primarily super famous for being young and good looking in the UK at the start of the Britpop craze of the 90s. They were a boy band and not very talented. I think Damon redeemed himself with Gorillaz though and showed he could truly write well when pressed. In some ways he surpassed Graham and the gang. Bottom line Oasis mogged the shit out of Blur. One thing a lot of people don't realize is some bands get really huge just because the members are really attractive. And it skews history and people's memories. Being Hot is a huge advantage. So when you say how good was Blur do you mean how hot were they on magazine covers in the 90s? Very. But their music was mostly pretty bad.
