Oasis get my vote for the best band of the 90's followed by: The Verve, Radiohead, Blur and uhh Sneaker Pimps....they only put out one good album but man was it good :-)
For me i'd have to say the Red Hot Chili Peppers; having released 3 very strong albums in the 90's they're a shoe in for me. Radiohead is also amazing so is Audioslave if they're in the 90's i'm not rly sure lol
Although Guns n Roses appetite for destruction was released late eighties, i'll still name them because they were pretty big early nineties too. Also Stone Temple Pilots core album kicked major ass.
And of course AIC, Nirvana, and Pearl Jam.... I'm from Washington and can't help it :-P
"Most of the stuff mentioned, plus...Cake, Kyuss, Sublime, They Might Be Giants "
Totally forgot Sublime! One of my favorites. I've always loved their music, and recently i went to see Laser Sublime (And Laser Floyd) And it kicked ass!
the verve?! what becuase they had one good song they stole from the rollingstones? please. thats the only song i know them from. most people dont even know who plays that song.
id say pearl jam deserves to be on anyones list. as well as sublime. 311, Nirvana, Soundgarden, Alice In Chains, Radiohead, Smashing Pumpkins, The Pixies. RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS! Oasis. yeah, it was nice growing up in the nineties for the most part. i could name so many more, hell even collective soul
The 90's had some great rock music. I put it in the same league as the 60's. It's hard to pick a list of tops on the fly, but I can say that two came to mind immediately:
Ugh, Blur, seriously? They had one good song, dumb english band. There only good song was 2 minutes long and it didnt involve much singing, mostly, "whoo hoos"
I could list so many '90s bands or just even just '90s music in general that I enjoyed. In my opinion, the early to mid '90s has some of the best music out there.
From the top of my head, here are some bands that I liked: Alice In Chains, Bush, NIN, The Pixies, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Smashing Pumpkins, Stone Temple Pilots, Weezer.
Well Green Day and Red Hot Chili Peppers are my two favourite bands and i guess they were releasing music in the 90's, so i'll go with them. Guns N' Roses bringing up third place.

You should probably hear more of there stuff instead of making silly comments like that. Blur were a great band and were much more diverse musically than Oasis.
Modest Mouse, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, My Bloody Valentine, The Olivia Tremor Control, Neutral Milk Hotel, Pavement, Silver Jews, The Dismemberment Plan, Wu-Tang, Elliott Smith, Cap'n Jazz, Sebadoh, The Mountain Goats, Built to Spill, The Magnetic Fields, Mogwai, Yo La Tengo, Refused...
I'm not gonna write out a top five list because I'm too lazy but Third Eye Blind's first album and Counting Crow's first album are two of my favorite cd's of that era and of all time.

Not to nit-pick, but I have to: those bands are actually both from the 80s.

Half the Band mentioned in this thread started/formed in the 80s but didn't get big till the 90s, so just let it be :)
