Greatest Grunge Rockers

[ronbo11]

GRUNGE!!!

The alternative rock that supposedly destroyed melodic/hair metal of the 80's. These bands/artists came south from their homes in the Northwest wearing flannel and shorts and running rough-shod over the music scene like the Vikings of yore. Which one of these groups is the greatest grungers of all?

[imarocker]

Kurt was the king..

[GuitarPLYR]

TOUGH!!! Gotta be between Soundgarden and Alice In Chains for me!!! Cobain, IMO, was WAY overrated...

[Delirious Nomad]

None. There is no such thing as a "great" grunge band.
...oops...I guess I have to pick one, huh?

Alice in Chains
:D

A group most likely forgotten is Mother Love Bone. Tragic what happened to the singer (believe his name was Andrew Wood). Temple of the Dog is in his memory.

Surprised ronbo did not list them. I know he has one or two of their CDs.

[imarocker]

i have Temple

Alice in Chains' Dirt is not only one of the best grunge CD's, but it is definitely 1 of the best CD's to come out of the 1990's and is easily in my top 10 of all time favorite albums.

you young whipper snapper you

[malja316]

I dont care how old or young you are, you wanna hear some good hard rock, go pickup AIC's "Dirt" CD...because Jim malja316 said so! :D

[OU812]

ac is winning

[imarocker]

they were great also,,,But Kurt opened that door,,,he was the last great rock star b4 Courtney murdered him...

[ronbo11]

The remnants of Mother Love Bone became Pearl Jam, so I decided to leave them off (limited amount of choices you know). Like MLB a lot too....

i don't really think that candlebox was grunge rock, they had alot of blues and rock and a few rock ballads

[JUKEBOX HERO]

you left off the king of grunge: NEIL YOUNG

Oh well, he's an old fart and changes styles a hell of a lot more than he does his flannel shirt ;) You're right, he could be on the list. Hey, hey, my, my - Rock-N-Roll will never die! (I hope he's right....)

[The Doork]

Some of these guys rocked, but none could touch Chris Cornell's vocals. He was arguably the last great rock singer. Since then, no one can carry a note. Even Cornell can't do it anymore (I think he blew his vocal chords out during the Soundgarden years).

agreed - helluva voice!

Alice In Chains

[shoeluvr]

alice in chains, there will never been another Layne Staley. but you can't deny, Nirvana paved the way

[puffpattiduke]

I voted for Nirvana - Loved Alice in Chains as well - But how about the Stone Temple Pilots??? Would they be considered grunge even tho they didn't come from Seattle?

[GreggFromJoisey]

Exactly what GuitarPLYR said!

[spaceape]

Tough choosing between AIC & Nirvana, but AIC won for me.

[2112]

Never really liked grunge. If I had to pick it would be Soundgarden with a slight edge over AIC.

That was tough, I love Chris Cornell's voice better but AIC rocked harder. I voted the same. It's now a tie between AIC and PJ.
