Seattle '90s Grunge Appreciation Thread
    #13017241 -

Without the scene developing in Seattle in the 1990s, a lot of positive development in rock music would not have happened. Plus, there was just some HOT music that came out in those days from that area of the world! Seriously, Mother Love Bone essentially became Pearl Jam after Andrew Wood died. Then, there's Soundgarden, Alice In Chains, The Meat Puppets, Nirvana, The Screaming Trees, all of the bands that Sub Pop pumped out i.e. The Melvins, U-Men, 10 Minute Warning, The Accused etc.

The Seattle scene influenced such greats as Sonic Youth and Dinosaur Jr to play the music that they did. That music had a huge influence on my childhood and throughout my adolescence. Without it who knows what I would be listening to now. It opened up an area that further diversified my musical tastes and, by extension, my worldly tastes. For this, I am grateful.

Thank you, Seattle!:heart:

Pearl Jam-Black


Soundgarden-Jesus Christ Pose


Alice In Chains-Rooster


Mother Love Bone-Chloe Dancer/Crown of Thorns


Nirvana-Love Buzz



Meat Puppets-Plateau


The Screaming Trees-Shadow of the Season



And by extension....

Dinosaur Jr-What Else Is New


Sonic Youth-100%


:heart:


Thank you for the positive impact that you had on my life.

Good thread, I still listen to every single band listed here.

I was just having a conversation the other day about how the Melvins wouldn't even be around without the release of Nevermind. haha kind of ironic seeing as how Buzz really didn't like Kurt.

So good to see you, I've missed you so much.

Nirvana was the first band I remember actually liking.  They had such an awesome sound.  I loved the distortion they used.

An interesting thought, considering that Nevermind may never have even been recorded if not for the Melvins.
A band's influence upon an unknown band can lead to drastically increased notoriety if the previously unknown band becomes bigger than Jesus....an odd way to sell tickets and move records. [note:] Not an insinuation that the Melvins rode or cultivated the fervor surrounding Nirvana.

And going even further back let's not forget Tacoma's own, Jimi Hendrix.
Even if he did hit it big only after moving to the UK. Long live the legend. Babes are still throwing pussy at him nearly 30 years after his death.



As a child of the 90's growing up in Seattle I have a particular nostalgia to 90's grunge.
I was too young then to really fully participate in the grunge "scene" but my first albums were Sound Garden - Super Unknown and Nirvana - Unplugged.
Some fun facts.. Sound Garden is a real place in Magnusun Park in Seattle. It's an art project of sorts, tall metallic structures designed to capture wind and generate whistle-like tones.
Sadly that part of the park has been closed off to the public for a number of years now.
But wait!! I recently caught wind of some news that the NOAA offices which own that part of the park are relocating to California in the near future.
So maybe the city will reopen the Sound Garden to the public again?
And seeing as Sound Garden (the band) is doing reunion shows now, maybe they can be convinced to play a free show down at Magnusun Park for old time's sake?
I can dream, can't I? :tongue:
