90's Music Anyone?

HeavyDuty24 · 01-04-2012, 10:41 PM

Well i saw the 90's TV thread and the 90's gaming thread so i figured i would make a 90's music thread? remember the good old 90's music? Pearl Jam, Nirvana, Soundgarden, Hootie & The Blowfish, Counting Crows, Bush, Eve6, The Verve, Goo Goo dolls. Ah good times indeed and good music to boot.

Your Plump Princess · 01-05-2012, 06:57 AM

I was a huuuuge Spice Girl fan.

I had an absolute FIT when Geri/Ginger left the group [because she had red hair like mine and her voice was incredible] sooo many days spent with my friends singing and pretending to be them.

Oh, sweet childhood memories. I even had a Sporty Spice doll!

I enjoy Tool, but i always Enjoyed a perfect circle more.

I think Danny Carey is an amazing drummer and it's not really something that's disputable, but Josh Freese, who played for a perfect circle is one of my absolute favorites. The guy is amazingly talented.

just haven't posted in a while and this seemed like a logical post.

I totally agree! "Push" got me into Matchbox Twenty, you guys have great taste in 90's music. I remember bands like Garbage was good too, groups like R.E.M., Presidents Of The United States, LEN, Spacehog, Marcy's Playground, Fastball, Del Amitri, Merideth Brooks, LIVE, even groups like LFO were fun. Those were good times man. Man the 90's was good.

seavixen · 01-09-2012, 08:46 PM

Stone Temple Pilots. Core & Purple were amazing albums. I still love them. Really, really a lot.
Radiohead. Pablo Honey had some great stuff on it.
Tori Amos. She put out some fantastic albums in the '90s.
Type O Negative. Peter Steele had SUCH a sexy voice.
Nirvana, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam... let's face it, I still like grunge.
Tom Waits. Okay, so he's not a '90s artist, but Mule Variations was one of the albums he put out in the '90s, and it's one of my favourites of his.
No Doubt. Tragic Kingdom - when Gwen Stefani was awesome.
Counting Crows. I'm pretty sure I know August and Everything After by heart.

This is gonna sound a bit out of nowhere, but Boyz II Men's first two albums were really good - and they put on a fantastic concert. I saw them not long after II came out.

There were a lot of various artists that I liked some stuff by (Matchbox 20, Goo Goo Dolls, etc.), too, as there is with most decades... and I'm sure I'm forgetting tons of excellent artists.

As for the bad... I'm not going there. We will not bring NKOTB into this.

Jess87 · 01-10-2012, 11:08 PM

Elliott Smith, Pavement, Matthew Sweet, PJ Harvey, The Lemonheads, James, XTC, Pantera, They Might Be Giants, and The Flaming Lips, all put out great stuff in the 90s. The 90s were also my favorite decade for Hip Hop.

sgageny · 01-11-2012, 03:29 AM

Jeff Buckley.
Spent most of my angst ridden youth listening to the magic he weaved.

Oh the shame!

I was team Nsync all the way. Thankfully, I had my older, and wiser sisters forcing me to listen to Neutral Milk Hotel, Elliott Smith, and a bit more mature music so I wasn't stuck with Top 40 forever. Not gonna lie, I still jam them on the iPod from time to time.

aocutiepi · 01-11-2012, 04:13 PM

My best friend bought us tickets to see Nick Carter (of Backstreet Boys fame) on his solo tour in February as my Christmas present. I'm so psyched.

Go ahead, call me lame.

I also loved all of the other Top 40 stuff like the Spice Girls.

Lest we think I have no taste, I also enjoyed Matchbox Twenty, Eve6, Goo Goo Dolls, Pearl Jam, Third Eye Blind, Oasis, No Doubt, Boyz II Men, TLC and I have to give some love to 90s hip-hop like Snoop, Dre, 2 Pac and Biggie. Meh, we might still think I have no taste. No big deal.

I like to think my iPod is a bit unpredictable. You never know what'll turn up on it.

But a lot of it comes from the 90s, my favorite music.

Angelina · 01-11-2012, 04:27 PM

LOL I'm listening to a 90's station right now! I LOVED the 90's for it's amazing contribution to music...and feel like I've become one of those old folks that grumps 'Music was so much better back in my day'.
:P
Current track - Tracy Bonham Mother, mother....

I'm right there with you on those.

My first concert was the Backstreet Boys when their Millennium Tour came to Dallas.

And I loved it.

Lots of bands I'm not ashamed to admit loving back then listed here as well though. Good taste in music it seems.

Nexis · 01-15-2012, 11:07 AM

Don't forget to add some Weezer and Smash Mouth to the mix.

I remember listening to Brittney Spears (her early stuff), N*Sync, Spice Girls, and Smash Mouth. =)

Happenstance · 01-20-2012, 10:56 AM

Most of the artists I would have mentioned have been mentioned already, with the exceptions of:

Incubus, even though the 2000s had started before they reached widespread popularity, and:

Sponge, whose 1994 debut album Rotting Piñata might be my favourite grunge album ever released. Sponge had two singles ("Plowed", and "Molly", better known by the line 'sixteen candles down the drain') which were heard on the radio constantly for about six months, their album was certified gold, then they pretty much disappeared. Apparently they're still together and still recording, but the singer is the only original member still with the group. They're not on a big label anymore, and whoever had been promoting them in 1994 must not have been too concerned with Sponge's lasting success. But for what it's worth, I've checked out some of the music they've released since 1994 and haven't been too impressed by any of it. (The song "Have You Seen Mary" from their 1996 album Wax Ecstatic is pretty okay.)

So there. Two 90s bands that have held some influence over my own songwriting.

Takeshi · 01-21-2012, 01:06 AM

Dirty Vegas- "Days Go By".....*nods head...mhm...

also, Sugar Ray - "Some Day"...

Victoria08 · 01-21-2012, 01:36 AM

It was all about the Spice Girls for me in the 90's.

....I, um, may still own their greatest hits cd.
