ALICE IN CHAINS GREAT TUNES,NIRVANA OVERATED,SOUNDGARDEN/PEARL JAM CARRIED THE GRUNGE FLAG,,,

First Pearl Jam album was great, the following had some great tunes also but was less coherent. Alice as it's first incarnation was the best band considering the quality of their discography Eps included.

Neil Young/ Crazy Horse. They were grunge before it had a name. Everyone else just followed

PEARL JAM AND VS WERE TWO GREAT CD'S..

dj181 · « **Reply #16 on:** December 19, 2012, 06:29:07 AM »

are these dudes considered grunge?

snx · « **Reply #17 on:** December 19, 2012, 06:29:35 AM »

It's a tie for me.

Soundgarden or Alice in Chains.

Both were/are great.

Surprised no one has mentioned the Pumpkins yet...

Pumpkins was poppier at first then became just a bit snobbish and overblown with "Mellon Collie....". Corgan's voice is an acquired taste while Layne, Vedder are pretty much good t great rock vocalists to most.

Neil is a maniac.

Alice in Chains
Pearl Jam
Nirvana
Soundgarden
A bunch of also rans such as Candle Box, Meat Puppets ( I like them) and Toadies.

One of his best songs IMHO. BTW, first album is way underrated (the one dj181 posted "The Loner" from), one of his best if not his best. His stuff with Buffalo Springfield has some great songs also and the CSN&Y "4th Way Street" is really highlighted by his presence.
