    who do ya'll think is the sent band to come out of the 90's?
    NOT including Jam Bands. strictly what you hear on radio and see on TV. Mainstream stuff.
    what do ya'll think?

    The most obvious answer would be Nirvana, but my personal favorite is Weezer.

    i wouldnt even put Nirvana in my top ten. i think they're one of the most overrated bands. surely they were one of the most influential bands of all time, but that doesnt make em good. i've already come to my conclusion, i just wanna see what ya'll think

    Why no jambands? Thats unfair! Phish is obviously the best band of the 90's. My non-jamband choice would have to be Radiohead though.

    phish is obviosly the best band of the 80's. i spose you could call em 90's cause thats when they sorta reached their apex (as of now) but the way me and my friends have been discussing this is that it's when the band as it stands today came out and starting playin shows and recording music. JUnta: released in 89, so phish doesnt count. Personally, i would allow Phish to be considered Mainstream, in this sense that i have heard them on radio, they've been on the cover of magazines (besides relix) and they've been on letterman, leno, mtv, vh1... etc. but i consider phish to be 80's

    And how much music from that decade have you heard to come to such a conclusion? I certainly don't think Phish is the best band from the 80's.

    the answer is:
    *ALICE IN CHAINS*
    or perhaps Radiohead...

    my two favorite mainstream bands from the 90's :)

    I am struggling to think of any mainstream bands/artists from the 90's I like. There was lots of good music released in the 90's, but none that is mainstream that I can think of.

    i personally think that the 90's was a horrible time for music. if i have to pick one i'm going to go with weezer too. i like a lot of their songs. and rage against the machine isn't bad either.

    If we have to stick to mainstream, I like U2 and REM, if they are considered 90's bands. I like Phish too.

    Hate to sound cliche, but Nirvana.

    Oh and RATM... Too many to name.

    How we all forget about Pearl Jam. Anyone over 25 not know the lyrics to Alive, Black, and Jeremy? The first 2 albums were mindblowing, but all people can remember is Nirvana.

    Rage, Dave Matthews, Alice in Chains, Soundgarden, STP, Tool<---Speaking of how you can forget!!!!!, 311, and one from the 80s the was rocking hard in the 90s Red Hot Chili Pepers.

    what a great year 91 was
