Forgotten Bands from the 90s

Strokes imo have made 3 fine albums , Probably isnt the done thing to like them anymore but they have always been quality as far as I was concerned. Long may they continue to produce music.

Speaking of WASP the bro in law went to see them in Wolverhampton and got to meet Blackie, got him to sign some rare poster he got off ebay. The guy is OBSESSED!

Screaming Trees? I thought I was about the only person around these parts who likes them. Split up forever alas.

I've seen almost every band I like live, but probably my biggest regret as a music fan is never having seen the Trees live. I missed them in London by a week in 1993.

Couldn't agree more. "Silver Lining" is one of the best albums of the last 12 months.

Screaming Trees were probably decent exponents of grunge at the time but if you listen to them now I think they're quite dated, sound like a more motivated version of Kyuss. In fairness though, Mark "I go through three lighters a day, not three packs" Lanegan brought out a fantastic solo album called Bubblegum a few years ago, his thing with Isobel Campbell was quite good, and anything he's done with QOTSA is obviously very good. Just proves kicking heroin does wonders for your career.

Currently listening to The Sugarcubes album "stick around for joy" makes you realise how far Bjork has fallen.

Probably best known for the Neil Diamond cover,"Girl You'll be a woman soon" from the Pulp Fiction soundtrack, Urge Overkill were one great band(lead singer Nash Kato looks eerily like a young Christopher Walken)
