the only grunge band that does anything for me is alice in chains

Soundgarden owns!! I wish they'd reunite. Cornell's other efforts seems to be rather crappy.

I like alice in chains, soundgarden, and nirvana. I can't say I've heard any others. THerre is something to be said for that type of good but simple song.

i know this is totally predictable, but, nirvana. too bad dave grohl had to go make such a sucky band as the foo fighters.

 

[chicky]

Alice in Chains and Nirvana.

 

[Hatebreeder]

Don't mean to sound cliche, but Alice In Chains, Nirvana, Pearl Jam, and the Stone Temple Pilots are acceptable grunge bands. It's all this post-grunge shit that's taking over the new generation that I dislike.

 

[Death Comes Ripping]

Throw in Soundgarden, and i'll totally agree with you.

 

[Hatebreeder]

I've never heard a single note of any of Soundgarden's songs.

 

[Dazed and Brutal]

I've never heard a single note of any of Soundgarden's songs.

Oh damn really?

Chris Cornells vocals are quite amazing, I'm sure you have heard Audioslave (same vocalist but with Rage Against the Machine members on the insturments) well times them by 50 and you have SoundGarden

I actually really love Alice in Chains, but I'm totally against them touring again, it seems disrespectful and also nobody can ever do Layne Staley justice.

Stone Temple Pilots are one of my favorite bands of all time. Then weiland had to fuck it up. Also Alice in Chains, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam. I never really liked Nirvana

Yeah, Staley had a one of a kind style.

Grunge isn't even a real genre. It's a title that was placed on bands that came out of seattle. I don't see enough similarities between Nirvana, Alice in Chains, and Pearl Jam to classify grunge as a genre.

Early Smashing Pumpkins has been called grunge, but it's fairly psychadelic as well, either way it rules.

Soundgarden and Alice In Chains were amazing bands....I am still a big fan, but most of the "grunge heroes" of early 90`s are making bad music today.....I mean for me Pearl Jam had great first album "Ten", but after that they didn´t have one good album, Stone Temple Pilots Singer is in this Velvet Revolver Band, Dave Grohl and his Foo Fighters can´t be really taken seriously, Chris Cornell (amazing vocalist) and Audioslave are not that bad, but not to compare with Soundgarden or RATM, Alice In Chains want to tour again, but that won´t work without Lane Staley......

I saw Alice In Chains open up on the "Clash Of The Titans" tour with Anthrax, Slayer, and Megadeth back in 1991, right before they hit it big. During the intermission after Alice's set, Layne Staley was walking right out in the audience on the main floor. I thought that was the coolest thing.

I liked a lot of grunge. Alice In Chains, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, Mudhoney, Stone Temple Pilots stand out to me the most.

Agreed, Nirvana - punk/rock, AIC-rock/metal, Pearl Jam - Rock, Soundgarden - Heavy Metal (early)/Rock (later).

But still all great, even classic bands.

There's another grunge thread on the first page, why bump this?
