It was definitely Soundgarden for me.

But you have so many hard rock bands as choices. I don't think this is the right board for such a poll.

And judging from the ages of some of the posters here, a portion of the board was in diapers when those bands were popular. Very Happy

I'm only 16, so I was in diapers, too, actually. I post at a Smashing Pumpkins message board, and this poll came up. Obviously the Pumpkins wasn't an option, 'cause if you're at a Pumpkins message board, then the Pumpkins are definitley going to win. So, I was just curious and wanted to see if the Pumpkins would win out.

So yeah, not really MY list.

Dookie probably holds it's place in my book as one of my top three albums i've ever heard.

Now, i don't listen to Green Day much anymore (if at all really) but i listened the hell out of that CD when it came out.

A poll like this should really be open-ended. Especially with a topic as subjective as music there really can't be a concensus about favorite band of all the 90s bands.

More of the smaller 90s bands were some of my favorites. Blake Babies, Letters To Cleo, Belly (as aforementioned), and Dance Hall Crashers are some bands I remember more than most of the bands on your list.

I have a hard time listening to anything from the 90's nowadays. It was in my heyday, which probably means I hated high school or something.

But at one time I did like the above bands (with a few exceptions). And I loved The Cranberries, Live, The Breeders, Frente!, and Weezer.

I almost made a comment about Modest Mouse being on here, but then I went to amazon.com and found out how many releases they had in the 90's. Many of those albums I thought came in the 2000's, but they were just reissues.

Nirvana is still overrated to me. Obviously there is no denying their impact, but still it's not THAT great. Let the guy go out in peace.
