I like this

bleach nirvana. suck it faglords

>>72209255
Pretty good chart amigo

>>72209255
Sooo AiC is the best grunge band? The only reason they're listed as grunge is beacause they're from Seattle.

>>72209360
People like to say/think that a lot, but no -- they aren't.

this and badmotorfinger are my favorite albums but aic is my favorite grunge band

>>72209360
technically I put Nirvana first, but yeah sure

>>72209255
why would Above be considered a grunge album? just because the musicians were involved in the grunge scene?

>>72209584
Nirvana was great but kinda overrated.

>>72209360
For me its Melvins (if you count them) but if not then AiC is my fav yeah

>>72209255
Needs more Love Battery & Skin Yard

dirt is realllllly good

however i like aic unplugged the best out of all their work. their songs really translate well into acoustic, and give it a more sincere vibe. really melancholy and needed for a rainy day

>>72209830
yeah above isnt really grunge. maybe a few songs like i dont know anything but most of it is blues and really soft rock

Screaming Trees and Mark Lanegan in general are so underrated. They had that kind of cozy pastoral vibe that you just won't find in any other hard rock band.

>shit mu chart reinforces it

You stupid ass fucks. All of these sound different from each other. You can' tell me Badmotorfinger sounds like Temple of the Dog's self titled, Nevermind, Ten, or Bullhead.

>>72209096
not even the best nirvana album you fucking goon

>>72210880
Gotta agree with this guy. AiC is more metal than anything

t. people who are afraid of saying nevermind

>>72210880
They sound different, but not genre different. Those bands are considered the main grunge bands for a reason.

>>72210798
I've listened to Strange Religion so many times I've lost count. One of my top 5 songs.
I can't find much else like his solo stuff except Le Panera Man.

>>72211007
Nigga what the fuck are you talking about.

They're only considered to be mains because they're all from the same place and happened to be around in the same time frame. Within a single year, 1991, it showed how fucking different genre wise these bands are. Nevermind was damn near pop music, Temple of the Dog and Ten were just another set of alternative hard rock albums while Bullhead was another doom/sludge metal album. AiC's Dirt the following year is a fucking alternative metal album.

I feel like Facelift and Dirt are metal. Then Sap came out, and it was their transition from metal, to a more "grunge" sound. I dont know how else to describe it. Sap, Jar of Flies, and the Untitled album, are less heavier musically than facelift and dirt, but the lyrics and overall tone on those 3 projects are much darker. For me, that's when AiC really cemented their place in history as one of the best Seattle bands. In my opinion, they're easily the best.

>>72213454
Sap would be so much better without Love Song.

Post-Layne AiC is seriously underrated.

>>72213506
Eh, I hear you, but it's the last track of the album. So for me, it's not really a big deal.

Dropped.

If you want to deprive yourself of excellent modern grunge :^)

>>72213605
If by "deprive yourself", you mean "really not miss anything worthwhile." OK.

>>72213605

ITT every band that came out of Seattle in the 90's.

>>72215877
love Pearl Jam, but I think it's wrong to call them a grunge band. Only Ten and Vs. feel like grunge to me. From Vitalogy they basically became an alternative rock band with 60's/70's inspirations like The Who.
No Code and Binaural are their superior albums.

>>72216145
Define grunge.

>>72216165
too me grunge has more of a punk or metal influence and a distorted, "dirty" sound. On their early albums Pearl Jam are most of all a 90's stadium rock band with a touch of grunge.

>>72209255
Wow that's fucking trash my man
that top 4 lmfao

>>72216229
Wouldn't say it's punk at all. It all seemed to have a melancholy undertone. And yeah you're right about the dirty sound though. Lots of that for sure. But it's hard to define grunge since it wasn't really a genre but much more of a time in the mid-90's that seemed to have a lot of bands doing the same thing and it sounded good.

Ie. Rage, Soundgraden, STP, Pearl Jam... you know, all the guys wearing flannel n' shit lol.

>>72216165
It's a scene of punk and hard rock bands from Sub Pop, C/Z records and a couple others centralized in Washington State, specifically from 1986 - 1990 or so. After it was popularized, musicians in the scene developed their sound and intermingled with other artists whom they performed shows with from 1991 to about 1994/95. From there on out, the STP's, Candlebox's and Silverchairs continued to derive the sound, but without any ties to Grunge scene, thus creating Post-Grunge.

>>72216273
I think bands like Mudhoney and Nirvana definitely have a punk feel to them.
But yeah, I agree grunge was for sure just as much a fashion phenomenon

>>72210992
Nevermind isnt that good of an album

Never heard of it, bit it reminds me of my favorite Nirvana album, Bleach. Very raw stuff, I feel like Kurt's influences really shine on that one.

Is your reading comprehension terrible or something? I clearly said grunge isn't a genre and then you reply back to my post implying I said or thought grunge is a genre. Stop being stupid.
