TheNewWhack
05.21.10 | Fucking GREAT list! I might change 32 to Mother, Mother. Love me some Tracy Bonham though.
|
Nagrarok
05.21.10 | More than enough win here. |
TheNewWhack
05.21.10 | Super stoked to see Local H on here. "As Good As Dead" just might be the best album of the 90's. |
AliW1993
05.21.10 | Nice list, Id add
Hole - Awful
The Verve - Drugs Dont Work
|
theacademy
05.21.10 | biggest props imaginable for 55. song is criminally overlooked. It is so awesome.
Recs/Missing:
Addict - "Monster Side"
Kula Shaker - "Hush"
Hooverphonic - "2Wicky"
Sugar Ray - "RPM"
Eve 6 - "Open Road Song"
Millencolin - "Lozin Must"
Marcy Playground - Whole Album, duh.

TheNewWhack
05.21.10 | Hey academy, I smell sex, candy, poppies/opium and St. Joe on a school bus. It smells good. |
theacademy
05.21.10 | it smells AWESOME. I'll call sherry frazier. she lives in the shadow of seattle, just beyond the ancient walls of flowers. She's gone crazy, but it'll just be one more suicide... |
BigHans
05.21.10 | Man Im already realizing I forgot alot of one hit wonders:
Poe: Angry Johnny
K's Choice: I'm Not an Addict
Patti Rothstein: Inside
Babylon Zoo: Spaceman |
BigHans
05.21.10 | How did I forget the Verve?
Bittersweet Symphony and Lucky Man ftw.
Academy, MOTA rules. Probably should have thrown a little Marcy Playground in as well. Honestly, this list could have been 300 deep easily. |
theacademy
05.21.10 | if u have barenaked ladies and tonic and third eye blind, you can put smash mouth on here... "Then The Morning Comes" |
TheNewWhack
05.21.10 | Let's give this up, academy. This isn't where we belong. Come back for free and let's become the vampires of New York. |
BigHans
05.21.10 | Fucking GREAT list! I might change 32 to Mother, Mother. Love me some Tracy Bonham though
^ yep, great song, one I overlooked. |
TheNewWhack
05.21.10 | On the other hand, I can feel this Narcolepsy slide... Into another nightmare. |
Inveigh
05.21.10 | yea list rules but I'd have gone with Hey Johnny, Park! instead of Good Grief by Foo Fighters. I didn't notice any Cumbersome or Water's Edge by Seven Mary Three on here either (unless you consider them grunge I guess). Also, Breakfast at Tiffany's by Deep Blue Something and maybe Circles or Rollin by Soul Coughing. Haha, and of course...
How Bizare muthafucka! ooh, and Chumbawumba lol.
|
Inveigh
05.21.10 | haha, also Freshmen by The Verve Pipe :-) |
BigHans
05.21.10 | Inveigh, how the FUCK did I forget Seven Merry Three? American Standard is one of my favorite albums of the era. Every song on it is good.
HOW BIZZARE haha.
I do have The Freshmen on there. |
TheNewWhack
05.21.10 | Oh Inveigh, you Tubthumper. I get knocked down, but... |
fr33convict
05.21.10 | Did someone on Sputnik actually say they liked a Creed song? |
BigHans
05.21.10 | I like about 10 Creed songs, don't care what anyone says. |
TheNewWhack
05.21.10 | Creed's first album was actually really good. It was before the "Scott Stapp is a bag of douche" era. |
fr33convict
05.21.10 | Well props for that I guess. They made some damn good songs. |
fr33convict
05.21.10 | And that comment was towards bighans. |
Inveigh
05.21.10 | ^there were actually a few pretty great Creed songs on that first album, including My Own Prison, Torn, One etc.
yeah Hans I saw The Freshman like right after I typed that... oh, and Seven Mary Three rules like no other dude, I still find myself singing their songs for hours after I hear them randomly. Me and a friend of mine made a parody of Cumbersome one time about having Keifer Sutherland over for lunch... "I have Keifer Suuuuutherland at my lunch... spiked the punch etc..." funnier if you were there I imagine... |
BigHans
05.21.10 | Upon review, list needs moar
Eagle Eye Cherry: Save Tonight
Everything: Who Got the Hooch
Cracker: Low, Get Off This
Seven merry Three: Waters Edge, Cumbersome
Marcy Playgrond, Sherry Fraiser, Sex and Candy
Poe: Angry Johnny
K's Choice: I'm Not an Addict
Patti Rothstein: Inside
Babylon Zoo: Spaceman
The Verve: Lucky Man, Bittersweet Symphony
Oh wait, this is my list. Face Palm. |
Inveigh
05.21.10 | ^all excellent choices. |
Inveigh
05.21.10 | oh dude... Fastball - The Way and that other song "was I outta my head was I outta my mind..." |
BigHans
05.21.10 | Haha Inveigh, its always fun to change the words of 90s songs.
In college, my friend and I (who was a much better guitar player), did this alot. We changed Hootie's "let Her Cry" to "Spread Her Wide," and changed the chorus of December to "Turn your head and don't you dare spit it out."
Just a few examples. |
BigHans
05.21.10 | Yep, Fastball was decent.
How about Marvelous 3, Freak of the Week? Tell me I Sold Out, Tell Me I Sold Out.
Oh yeah, we alwasy added "fuckface" to the end of that sentence. |
TheNewWhack
05.21.10 | If I were to add a few...
Folk Implosion - Natural One
Salt - Bluster
Pearl Jam - Corduroy
Soundgarden - Spoonman |
MUNGOLOID
05.21.10 | list brings the nostalgia. |
BigHans
05.21.10 | NewWhack, I left off Pearl Jam, AIC, Nirvana, and Soundgarden cause I wanted to make it post grunge. If it would have been an all up 90s list they would have dominated it. |
Inveigh
05.21.10 | hahaha that's awesome. there's nothing better to do when you're bored than grab a couple acoustics, a case of beer and start making some ridiculous borderline-improved music. |
Inveigh
05.21.10 | *improvised |
TheNewWhack
05.21.10 | I got ya Hans, that's one of the reasons I love this list. You left out all the juggernauts. |
TheNewWhack
05.21.10 | Esp. Nirvana. |
BigHans
05.21.10 | Another criminal oversight:
Jimmie's Chicken Shack: Do Right, Waiting
Christ, Ive been touting Bring Your Own Stereo on this site for months now and forget to put it on this list. |
Inveigh
05.21.10 | haha and I keep forgetting to d/l it.. damnit! |
BigHans
05.21.10 | The moral of the story is the 90's ruled. Even with leaving out the best part of the decade (early 90's, grunge, real metal still popular), I can think of at least 3-400 great popular/semi-popular songs that bring fucking WAVES of nostalgia for me. |
TheNewWhack
05.21.10 | How did I forget Jimmie!? Check out their new album, Fail On Cue. Caught Down in particular. Being from Maryland, I've followed those guys since their inception. |
ConsiderPhlebas
05.21.10 | You make fucking awesome lists, man. Not heard some of these - getting on it right now.
62 and 63 were on the first mixtape I ever made. Been trying to remember the name of 29 for years. Ace. |
BigHans
05.21.10 | Thanks Jewel, you came up about the same time as me so Im guessing youre a fan of most of these. |
BigHans
05.21.10 | How did I forget Jimmie!? Check out their new album, Fail On Cue. Caught Down in particular. Being from Maryland, I've followed those guys since their inception.
^ Might have to do that. Bring Your Own Stereo is in my top 50 albums of all time. |
TheNewWhack
05.21.10 | My 90's were dominated by this list, Sepultura's Roots, Ten Foot Pole's Rev and Jimmies Chicken Shack's Pushing the Salmonella Envelope. Not to mention, the yearly Punk-O-Rama releases for $5.99. I miss my days as a thrasher, lol! |
BigHans
05.21.10 | For some reason I always thought Salminella Envelope paled in comparison to Bring Your Own Stereo, but High is still a great great song.
Also props on that Folk Implosion song, I completely forgot that existed. |
ConsiderPhlebas
05.21.10 | Yeah man, although I somehow missed Third Eye Blind back then - only got into a couple of months back. So many good memories attached to these songs though. Great days.
I'd add The Seahorses - Love is the Law, Cast - Guiding Star, Kula Shaker - Hush |
BigHans
05.21.10 | YES Kula Shaker |
BigHans
05.21.10 | Where the hell is Semisonic, Closing Time? |
TheNewWhack
05.21.10 | To each their own, Hans. Both are great albums. Pushing is much more heavy while BYOS is more jam oriented. I love them both. Fair on Cue is the PERFECT mix of both styles. |
ConsiderPhlebas
05.21.10 | I'm making this list into a playlist on my Ipod - gonna use it when I go running. |
TheNewWhack
05.21.10 | ConsiderPhlebas, this might be the best work-out list ever. |
BigHans
05.21.10 | Make sure Plowed is track one. That song pumps me up hardcore. |
ConsiderPhlebas
05.21.10 | I've been looking for good workout stuff for ages - can't believe I never thought of this.
Plowed was one of the ones I hadn't heard, listening to it now - fucking yes. |
TheNewWhack
05.21.10 | Agreed. |
BigHans
05.21.10 | Jewel, if you liked Plowed, download the songs Rotting Pinata and Wax Ecstatic from them as well, both are good workout songs. Unfortunately there isnt a good version of Rotting Pinata on You Tube.
Heres Wax Ecstatic, it slays:

Local H is where it's at. |
BigHans
05.21.10 | If I was Eddie Vedder, would you like me any better? THATS IT, I QUIT I DONT, GIVE A SHIT!
Dude, love that album. I also enjoyed High Fiving Motherfucker, No Problem, and Freeze Dried Flies off that disc. |
TheNewWhack
05.21.10 | I have to add one more song...
Elastica - Connection |
ConsiderPhlebas
05.21.10 | Where have Sponge been all my life? Fucking ace. |
BigHans
05.21.10 | Yeah man, Sponge had one great album (Rotting Pinata) and one very good one (Wax Ecstatic)
Some other great Sponge songs when you get the time:
Rainin; (great soaring ballad)
Fields: (strong ballad)
Molly (poppy, upbeat, about Molly Ringwald)
Have You Seen mary (acoustic ballad)
Miles (pretty cool typical Post Grunge tune) |
TheNewWhack
05.21.10 | ConsiderPhlebas, They've been absorbing water at your command.
|
TheNewWhack
05.21.10 | Their 16 candle's went down the drain. |
BigHans
05.21.10 | DONT ASK WHY, DONT ASK WHY! DONT ASK WHY! DONT ASK WHY! 16 CANDLES DOWN THE DRAIN |
ConsiderPhlebas
05.21.10 | Downloaded both those albums, gonna put them in the car. Listening to a bit of Everclear, for the first time in ten years. |
TheNewWhack
05.21.10 | I just laughed hard enough for a good ol' fashioned pants pissing. Good man. |
BigHans
05.21.10 | Aside from the title track, the first half of Rotting Pinata is more of a grower, kind of boring in places. The second half is fucking perfect. |
TheNewWhack
05.21.10 | Drownin' and Molly are one of the best Rock n' Roll tag teams of the 90's. |
ConsiderPhlebas
05.21.10 | Miles is pretty cool - Drownin' is fucking sweet.
Thought of a few more I'd add.
Manic Street Preachers - Kevin Carter
Placebo - Every You Every Me
U2 - Staring at the Sun |
Fuff24
05.21.10 | list=win [?] |
BigHans
05.21.10 | Surely you're not doubting the awesomeness of this list Fuff.
Jewel: Drowin is cool. The best five songs on there by far though are Plowed, Rotting Pinata, Molly, Fields, and Rainin. Hope you like it. |
BigHans
05.21.10 | Wow, Just WOW.
Forgot
Counting Crows: Round Here, Mr Jones |
EVedder27
05.21.10 | I think I love about 90% of this |
BigHans
05.21.10 | I might have to do a Part 2, its getting ridiculous how many songs I left off. |
TheNewWhack
05.21.10 | For real, this just might be the best list of 2010. It makes me wanna count blue cars all over again. |
BigHans
05.21.10 | Nostalgia is one of the strongest human capacities, and these songs bring it in fucking torrents. |
TheNewWhack
05.21.10 | Nostalgia be damned. Good music is good music. Half of these songs permanently live on my playlist. |
BigHans
05.21.10 | Same Here. |
ConsiderPhlebas
05.21.10 | Nostalgia's definately a big thing for me - some of these songs are like markers to some of the best times/nights of my life. Is it just me, though, or was 90s shit more...celebratory? Maybe that's just nostalgia talkin but stuff like this has a real pumped up thing goin on. |
PearlDrummer20
05.21.10 | I've been fucking addicted to 17 lately. |
TheNewWhack
05.22.10 | He might sing stormy weather but the flies and spiders get along together. Watch out for the falling cobwebs. |
JWT155
05.22.10 | Awesome list, full of win. |
Fuff24
05.22.10 | oh no, I just wonder how many times people have proclaimed this list a win. and it is. I wish there were more lists like this, with alt rock instead of the constant metalcore lists |
Asiatic667
05.22.10 | Shimmer kills, cool list |
joesmoe4000
05.28.10 | you represented the 90's proudly a few meh tracks but overall you got it on point this list owns! |
TheSpirit
05.28.10 | First i only saw 90's and not the grunge part and i got mad for the exclusion of mother love bone, but now i forgive you. |
Awesomesauce
05.28.10 | Ahhh to be 15 again... |
FruityCatOfDoom
07.30.10 | hole isnt post grunge they are grunge. |
BigHands
10.15.10 | Pit got me in a 90s mood. Bumping my epic list. |
taroo
10.15.10 | No Failure! this list fails! |
BigHands
10.15.10 | lol this list rules harder than almost any list ever created on Sputnik |
taroo
10.15.10 | List rules, but it would rule more with Failure in it. |
BigHands
10.15.10 | Im pissed that I dont know what youre talking about, and I probably should. |
awhiteguy
10.15.10 | HOW HAVE I NEVER SEEN THIS?!?!?!?! |
BigHands
10.15.10 | no shit I did it 5 months ago. You were probably banned that day lol |
taroo
10.15.10 | Listen to:
album Fantastic Planet, one of the best alt rock ablums ever made.
You heard A Perfect Circle... Failure wrote the original The Nurse Who Loved Me, which blows the APC cover away. |
awhiteguy
10.15.10 | Probably, but the list is gasm worthy. |
BigHands
10.15.10 | will do taroo |
awhiteguy
10.15.10 | Tell me all your thoughts on God
Cause I would really like to meet her
And ask her why we're who we are
Tell me all your thoughts on God
Cause I am on my way to see her
So tell me am I very far
Am I very far now |
BigHands
10.15.10 | Im going to Youtube that song right now.
Do you remember Naked Pit?
Mann's Chinese ftmfw |
awhiteguy
10.15.10 | I think I do. I'm not sure. |
awhiteguy
10.15.10 | Lol, remember the other single Dishwalla had? Charlie Brown's Parents? |
BigHands
10.15.10 | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dmVgpQ2gt_M |
BigHands
10.15.10 | I dont remember that Dishwalla song, thats one of the few albums I didnt buy, so honestly I cant recall much more than Counting Blue Cars |
awhiteguy
10.15.10 | Dude, unfortunately I can't watch vids right now. No videos will play on my PC for some reason, so I'll have to wait until wifey gets home with the laptop. |
BigHands
10.15.10 | sucks. Thats a totally underlooked album. Came out right when the genre was dying, so it got forgotten |
awhiteguy
10.15.10 | It's just like what happened with Tripping Daisy. They waited too long, and then they fell off the face of the earth after "I've Got a Girl." |
BigHands
10.15.10 | yeah they did. I had that Tripping Daisy album but lost it like 3 months after I bought it. I Got a Girl slays though |
awhiteguy
10.15.10 | Yes, it does. |
theacademy
04.02.11 | looking back, this is probably the best music related list i've ever seen on sputnik |
BigHans
04.03.11 | Fuck yes |
Masochist
04.03.11 | Damn, what an excellent list! Since I didn't comment on it a year ago...
I love that Offspring's "Genocide" is included--best song on 'Smash', IMO. Also, HUGE props for Catherine Wheel's "Crank"...album is criminally unnoticed on Sputnik.
But wow, if you haven't done it yet, listen to taroo's advice and grab Failure's 'Fantastic Planet' ASAP. Essential listening, especially for a list like this. |
