90's Music

[CD5Passion]

tonight when i went to applebees with my buddy we were sitting and eating when a old Collective Soul song came on and struck something that I hadn't felt in a long time.
since the 90's the music has changed so much and that now the "punk" genre as they like to call it has pretty much taken over. but do you all remember the alternative rock movement of the 90's?....some very good songs were made while i was young and growing up.
well nows a time to be caught in nostalgia..what was your top 5 favorite songs or bands of the 90's

i dont think i could list my favorites in 5 personally but i did just download a shit load of music and put it on a cd to rock out to
it includes band such as
Blur, Collective Soul, everclear, eve6, goo goo dolls, fastball, live, metallica, nirvana, oasis, soundgarden, third eye blind, oleander, the verve, and the vervepipe, and the old school red hot chili peppers

man i cant wait to rock this shit

Let's see how well my memory's held up...wasn't ever a grunge/alt-rock guy. Punk will always be my first love. Anyway...

Far - Mother Mary
Flipper - the whole "Generic" album
Mudhoney - Suck You Dry
Sonic Youth - cover of The Carpenters' "Superstar" (really the whole "If I Were A Carpenter" album)
Black Flag (Rollins era) - Who's got the 10 1/2?

Suprisingly I could go on...much to my own shock (but not awe)...but I'll stop there.

Edit: Oh! And the "Saturday Morning Cartoons" album. Helmet doing the theme from Gigantor owns you in ways you'll never comprehend.

that cd is awsome... i think its actually sitting on my desk right now somewhere.

for 90's music i always listened to alot of nirvana, greedday(nothing past dookie), rage atm, then my enourmous ska and punk collection from back then.

early and mid 90's music rocked period. not only the alternative rock but the other genres too.

we'll see how things are by 2010 I'm sure we'll be missing it all. Everclear was an amazing band, I miss them. i think i first heard incubus in around 1999 but i'm not sure..probaly the same for SOAD. Fortunatly Incubus has retained their sound over the years, every cd has been great in its own way

WHAT?! Listen to "Enjoy!" or "S.C.I.E.N.C.E" and tell me any of their later stuff sounded nearly that good. I ran across Enjoy in a record store sometime around 1997-1998 and fell in love. Loved S.C.I.E.N.C.E even more. After that, it was all downhill.

[CD5Passion]

well I won't disagree at all, of course their old stuff was awesome but what i meant is they stayed incubus. they have mellowed out recently but you can still tell when a song is theirs. mann SCIENCE is my favorite cd by far..my friend lost it...maybe i'll download it sometime

im stuck in the 60's and 70's listening to their rock right now. so much more dynamic and layered than any crap i've herd today.

I swear...for some reason the only classic rock I can get into is The Who. They may, in fact, be one of the best bands ever. I don't know why...but just about all other classic rock pisses me off.
