If only there had been some women-led bands in the ‘90s besides The Breeders and The Cranberries and L7 and Portishead and The Sundays and Elastica and Hole and Indigo Girls and Sleater-Kinney and Mazzy Star and 10,000 Maniacs and ….
I think we just have to work with the flawed framework we have been given here so that we can reach the correct conclusion that Soundgarden was the best 90's band of those listed here.
If I were a betting man I’d say AIC wins
I agree with Siggy, but this wouldn’t be bad. Counting against Alice in Chaims OG is them having far less material. I love Facelift and Jar of Flies. Dirt is even better. I like all the new stuff and the new singer as well. But I don’t think it’s enough especially considering Facelift was their first album, and they were still developing their sound and vocal harmonization. Jar of Flies is only an EP. Against the trio of 90’s Soundgarden albums - Badmotorfinger, Superunknown and Down on the Upside, I just don’t see enough. Badmotorofinger and Dirt are both all time Top 10 albums for me.
Credit to both bands for helping reset rock and roll from poseur-glam hair metal and showing the world you didn’t have to out pose some other wimpy hair band.

Shout out to The Sundays. That’s pretty obscure, but I still need to watch the video for Here’s Where the Story Ends every few weeks. I secretly love bombshell hairstyles as my first crush was on my super hot first grade teacher which was the last grade I had pet status in. Harriet Wheeler did bombshells 30 years later to perfection.
one thing we can all agree on is that Pavement should win this thing
Not everyone. They’re a cool band, and I like them. But it’s not at Pearl Jam’s musical level much less Soundgarden, Alice In Chains or Nine Inch Nails. I wouldn’t be mad if they won at all, but the musicianship isn’t the same bar.

Maybe it was due the local radio market growing up, but I never heard of Pavement until I joined inforoo. I may have heard Cut Your Hair a few times but it was never something that caught my attention enough to research who they were.

I found them via the college radio hipsters i met as a freshman, theyre definitely a band that found a bigger cult following much later on
I'd say its Pearl Jam's or Soundgarden's to lose. But I love me some Pavement. They should probably be in the top 5.
I have them around maybe 7 where I think they would end up. Pretty standard and inoffensive. Oasis is a weird one for me around that level to predict. Clearly they were talented as shit. But there’s so much dumb side drama that the voters could conceivably punish them for.

or people that had tickets to one of their many canceled shows. Like me.
