Ok then what about best 90's metal band.

[secrets]

I wanted to mention Faith No More in the 80's thread but thought they fitted better into the 90's to be fair.

I think Jane's addiction deserve a mention too, their new album is also worth checking out.

[ALinChainz]

Alice In Chains.

Staley was damn good IMO.

These guys rocked.

[rustoffa]

Yep, Alice In Chains all the way.
L7's "Bricks are Heavy", "Hungry For Stink", and "The Beauty Process, Triple Platinum" are monster recordings as well.

[Mr Badguy]

Totally 90`s?

Rage against the machine
Fight

[Jano]

Alice in chains kick ass and i like Pearl jam too!

[Hollywood Jesus]

Was listening to Alice In Chains last night. Awesome. For me, they were the missing link between metal and grunge. Saigon Kick fits that description too, but never really caught on. Love "Peppermint Tribe" and "Body bag" by them.

My wife is a big Pearl Jam fan so I've totally discounted them as a chick band. And I utterly hate Nirvana. Coming on in the '90s for me is Kid Rock and Nickelback.

No doubt in my mind, best band of the '90s was Soundgarden.

1.Soundgarden (They did some good shit already in the 80's but Badmotorfinger and Superunknown were what did it to me...

2.Alice In Chains - Jerry Cantrell and Layne Staley, what a terrific duo...

3.RATM - Only 3 original albums but I love them all...

4.Faith No More - I think their "Album Of The Year" was and is very underrated...

5.STP - "Core" and "Purple" were great, rest of them not-so. When The Velvet Revolver was interviewed a while ago, Scott Weiland was praising "Appetite for destruction". Duff McKagan gave said he loved "Core" a lot - he used it for sorting cocaine...LMBSAO!!!



(Pearl Jam - I do enjoy their music a lot, I don't follow Vedder's interviews so much, all I care is his great voice...not much metal though)

Hey I Mother Earth!

I was really into that. How's about the early Tea Party albums.

Pennywise and NOFX ......now there's some mid-90's smackdown.

Man, that first I Mother Earth disk is amazing! It sounds so freakin good and the tunes are excellent! Some real trippy stuff, but they could also rock their faces off when they wanted to. Cool that they're still doin it, I've sorta lost touch now that Edwin has left.

Never really liked the Tea Party too much. The singing reeeally bugs me. "Got a letter from a messenger. I read it when it came". Not really my thing.

Rustoffa, your comment made my day man! I've been championing those guys on this board forever!

Yeah bro, the term "kick ass" comes to mind to say the least.

SOUNDGARDEN-Innovative, effective, ROCK. Totally fucking off the wall. Cornell's one helluva vocalist too.
