The 90's were somewhat of a dark, but still fun period for music, sure as hell better than now...now, all the music that you here sound like something from a Mcdonald's commerical... | |

I gravitate to darker music myself, so I don't really have a problem with the stuff released in the 90s. | |

 To be honest you can't really call any of those Grunge records... maybe Motley Crue but that was a new singer new band new outlook type situation and it was their strongest album: songs like Smoke the Sky, Uncle Jack, Droppin' like Flies, Misunderstood... all good. These Days was like BJ's attempt at a Soically Conscious hard rock record... and it was pretty good: Hey God, Lie to Me, This Ain't a Love Song and despite it's title Something for the Pain is damn upbeat song. The B-sides\Bonus track All I want is Everything and Bitter Wine are among their best tracks and should of been on the original. Skid Row's Subhuman Race was a straight up Heavy Metal record, nothing grunge about it unless you think Pantera is grunge. Pantera actually were a damn influential band, the only band of their era selling as much as they were who were proud to call themselves 'Metal'. As for the Warrant record... It's just a not that hard metal album, don't hear any grunge in that one. Overall this thread is true, 91-97 to me are the 90's after that it's just a different feel altogether. I always think of '98 as a dark year but I also started High School that year so that may be why. I think if you look the top ten grossing films of 90-94 and compare it the last ten years there is a huge slip in quality. The early 90's were the shit but having grown up during that time I do recognize that for a while i thought if art wasn't sad or negative in some way then was disposable. | |

Interesting how in the early 80's and early 90's, we see new movements in music with fresh energy. Then how later in both decades, those same styles become corporatized, homogenized, corrupted and commercialized. | |
