    What, nobody's said Radiohead? I know they're considered an 00s band, with Kid A and so on, but OK Computer is an amazing 90s album.

    Nine Inch Nails (ok they are from late 80's)
    Garbage
    Placebo

    I'm trying to think of others I like but many in my head are from the late 80's.

    I'm in the same boat...a lot of my favorite bands played through the 90s, but got their start much earlier... <3 Nine Inch Nails, Depeche Mode, and the Cure to this day...but they started earlier.

    If I had to go with a 90s only band....it would have to be Goo Goo Dolls, Beck, and Jane's Addiction.

    Dont forget Red Hot Chili Peppers.

    they are from the 80's. I even remember seeing them on very late night MTV in late 85.

    sorry but JA is also from the 80's. PfP came in the 90's after JA split for a while.

    Love these guys but technically 80's, they cut their first album in I think 1982 and even Blood Sugar Sex Magic, their breakthrough album was I think 1989

    2) Stone Temple Pilots
    3) Soundgarden
    4) Nirvana
    5) Foo Fighters

    I have definitely heard of them, and I'm sure they are from the 80's!!

    Yes, but they peaked in 90-91, so pretty sure it counts. Same with RHCP.

    Yes, but they didn't actually become widely known until 1990, and split up in 91.

    but 'widely known' does not a 90's band make :wink: some of us were already listening to them in the 80's...
