-- I realize I'm late to the show - 90's alternative help.......?
Hey guys - I'm looking for some bands similar to STP or Dinosaur Jr. I like the tracks that were popular enough to remember - however not the ones that were beaten to death by mainstream. It's a fine line.
Here's an example of what I'm looking for in this genre... http://tinyurl.com/mnkvzy If you all can help, that'd be great - I was listening mostly to hip-hop and electronica, even back then. So I missed a decade - aside from the Counting Crows and maybe Smashing Pumpkins - so eliminate those, please. Sisters of Mercy...??? The video I posted is precisely the style, and level of popularity (at that time) that I am looking for Any help? |

Radiohead (ok computer is my favorite from the 90s) Sonic Youth (their best album was arguably late 80's) The Cure (best album was in 89) Pixies (also best stuff very late 80s) Modest Mouse The Flaming Lips (sneak in with Soft Bulletin from 99) My Bloody Valentine Tool |

Used to see them at the Bottleneck here and there. They even opened up for us once. I just remember thinking, "this Dave Pirner-wannabe is really ****ing annoying".

All from roughly 1990, and before "Alternative" became not-so alternative:
