Soundgarden was the first out of that scene to get signed to a major label. I was going to UW and going out to see bands a lot...saw Soundgarden play to 50 people at a show benefiting a lesbian teen support group. Started seeing A&R guys at all these grunge shows, pretty amusing. Interesting (to me anyway) that within that mix of musicians, indie label crew, journalists etc we all mostly agreed that Hippie Big Buckle was the most intense band in the grunge scene. A band with pretty much zero recognition.

I always have hated 99% of the music that came out of the grunge era. Just garbage.
but
there was some incredible music during the 90s. most notably Leftfield "Leftism". If you like dance music, check this out. Classic! Also, so much good other good dance music was released back then.
Tons of respect to the music of the 80s. Even the mainstream music then was just incredible and still sounds amazing to this day. So much great classics from Run DMC, Beastie Boys, RHCP and more."up in the ski resorts, up in hills they move ki's and had skis making drops on snowmobiles"- GZA

Not into electronic or dance music but I did enjoy the orange Chemical Bros album from the 90s.
I still call it The Jake.

A couple not mentioned yet: Rollins Band, Butthole Surfers, Kyuss. Totally forgot about Silver Chair, Buster, thanks for the reminder.
A couple bands from the 90s I didn't know about then but listen to now: Drive Like Jehu and Neutral Milk Hotel.
The sound of the Counting Crows lead singer made me want to murder something back then. The worst frat boy-stoner music ever.

Drive Like Jehu especially good when you google "rome plow".

The Butthole Surfers. Another 80's band that reached a wider audience and "acclaim" in the 90's.
Not quite sure how to classify the Rollins Band. I'm going to go with 80's as well because Black Flag. That said, the Rollins Band was great during the first Lollapalooza tour in 91.

And I get a chuckle out of seeing Henry Rollins on the H2 Channel doing his "10 Things show". I am not sure whether to laugh or cry though.

No, unfortunately for me, just a complete slippage of mind. Soundgarden was the first signed out of Seattle, but I think Dino Jr. may have signed before Soundgarden...definitely not out of seattle.
Henry Rollins roll in the movie Heat was epic.
Faith No More was interesting....I know I know, somewhat 80s, but really hit fame in the 1990 with Epic...this song off of Angel Dust still cracks me up:
and this...
Damn shame, throwing away a perfectly good white boy like that

In regards to the Beastie Boys... They had 2 mainstream albums in the 80s but I think a bulk of their work was done in the 90s, with Check Your Head, Ill Communication, and Hello Nasty (plus a few others). They have newer stuff too. I think if I had to lump them into a decade, the 90s would be it. Even though grandpa's been rapping since '83

She's On It made the rounds in 85-86 era.

Not enough Pumpkins love on this thread either. I still rock out to Gish and Pisces Iscariot while skiing. Sure Billy was/is the band but Jimmy Chamberlin, their drummer, and longest member besides Billy was the real force behind that music I thought. Dude could flat out rock on drums.
I still call it The Jake.

Yes. Not sure about the signing though. I bought the first pearl jam album because it had a sticker on the front saying it featured former members of MLB.
I'll always consider the beasties an 80's band. She's on it was huge in 85
As was cookie puss. In 86 or 87 they headlined with public enemy and Murphy's law. They did some great albums in the 90's but still an 80's band. Same with the RHCP, I'd put them as 80's. 89 spring block party at SU featured them as headliners with mighty mighty boss tones and fishbone.
As for Rollins band I had a roommate wicked into the first album in the late 80's but I'd say they hit it in the 90's. I think black flag actually started in the 70's, I'd say 80's is when they hit it "big".
Thanks, this thread makes me feel like the old fart that I am. No one better start a thread on 70's punk, some of my favorite albums are pushing 40!

I could have sworn that they cut that album... I know the worked out a cd from a different venue as well, can't remember which one. It was a weird time for JP.. He was coming back from back problems and wasn't at the top of his game... But as someone who fell in love with The Ocean in 6th or 7th grade, just being in the same room with that dude was a dream come true.
On that note...
I have to wonder how that jabroni got through 30 guitar riffs without that one.
