Radiohead.
Alice in chains.
Smashing pumpkins.
Nine Inch Nails.
Matchbox 20.
Pearl jam.

The other three are:

Hole (Courtney Love’s band) Screaming Trees Soundgarden

I thought soundgarden was a puddle of mud for some reason

[–] Passerby6497@lemmy.world 19 points 2 days ago

I thought hole might have been one, and screaming trees was totally just something random I said in my head.

Can't believe I missed Soundgarden

[–] DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world 11 points 2 days ago

I missed Screaming Trees, never heard of them, and didn't think long enough about Pearl Jam.

I think hole is actually puddle of mudd, but either works i guess

Yeah you're probably right, I didn't realize most of their famous work was post 2000

[–] gh0stb4tz@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago (4 children)

Huh… I’ve never heard of that band before. Did they have a famous song with heavy rotation on MTV back in the day? If not, I must have missed them.

[–] Hellinabucket@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Yeah but they were early 2000s not 90s.

[–] Alabaster_Mango@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 days ago

They formed in 1992 and released their first album in 1997. Granted, not a lot of airplay on that, and they didn't really get much notice until their second album in 2001. I could totally see them being included if someone was just googling "90s bands" though.

If you ever played rockband 1 their song "Celebrity Skin" was featured. That's how I know of them

[–] undeffeined@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 days ago

They had a couple: "Blurry" and "She Hates Me" come to mind

[–] voxthefox@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

She hates me was the big one I remember, but apparently that was in 2001 so they're right its probably hole

[–] Jarix@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Blurry I think charted better

[–] Klear@quokk.au 1 points 2 days ago

Also Skibidi toilet.

Lol I thought Pearl jam was black eyed peas and I was a little confused about the theme
