And there's absolutely nothing you can do to dispute this obvious fact.
Absolutely. Nothing.
Even their Unplugged album blows away everybody else's. I will, however, take suggestions for second best rock band of the 90's.
1. AIC
2. Pearl Jam 3. Stone Temple Pilots 4. Tool? 5. Too high right now

Alice in Chains is one of my favorite bands.

You forgot about Smashing Pumpkins.
Nirvana should definitely be on this list also.
I wouldn't consider Tool a band from the nineties as Lateralus, their best album to date in my opinion, was released in 2001, and they are still making new music supposedly...

STP definitely up there. Purple album is the tits, I just get sick of Scott's voice a lot quicker than Layne's.

Very true, for some reason I was thinking 99, I guess I'm just old now.
Revised list:
1. AIC 2. Pearl Jam 3. Smashing Pumpkins 4. STP 5. Nirvana? Maaaayyybbeeee?

This is an indictment of music in the 90's and not an endorsement of AIC. Fucking wasteland.

I really wish we could include Deftones in this group as Around the Fur came out in 1997 and is an amazing album..White pony came out in 2000, everything else they did after is meh.
So much for wishful thinking.
Around the Fur-Deftones
One of the best albums of the nineties next to Siamese Dream.
In my opinion. Sorry getting off topic.

Yeah Deftones would definitely be up there if White Pony was released a year sooner (and if they didn't completely fall off afterwards).

Pearl Jam is fucking awful. their singer has no range and the music is way overplayed on the radio. they are the most annoying and awful band of the 90s.
even classic rock stations play that crap thats mainly why i dont like them

What 80s rock band is better?
And not a 70s rock band that happened to make a shit album in 81.

What? King Crimson with the Belew lineup doesn't count as 80s. Peter Gabriel? Most of Taliking Heads was in the 80s

Radiohead doesn't count as a rock band really but to my mind they're pretty much the only decent thing to emerge from the nineties. Alice in chains has like... two good songs

You're crazy man the nineties were awesome. I may just think that though because I was born in 1990, so all those old songs bring back a lot of nostalgia for me. That being said...
Radiohead is probably my favorite all around band, but I have burnt myself out on listening to them at the moment. Every album is completely different, which can be said about a lot of bands, but Radiohead really does it for me.
