This is a Prog board yet most of you chose Pearl Jam??

Soundgarden should have been the clear winner,

Much missing on this list... for me Veruca Salt, Neil Young, Pixies, Sonic Youth, Melvins, Helmet, Sebadoh, Pavement, Meat Puppets, Faith No More, Dinosaur Jr. are grunge too... so put one of these in the first place... Tongue


I just bought that album last week, I love, it's my favourite Pearl Jam album together with Yield, it's a shame it's so underrated, most people think it's one of their weakest, what the hell is wrong with them?!

the Norwegian band Motorpsycho was in the start a Grunge band but evolved to a Progressive grunge band, then to progressive alternative rock/metal, then to Jazz/rock and Psychadelic and progressive rock

^ Great call on I Mother Earth.  I thought of putting them up as well, but discounted them because they didn't seem like a grunge band to me.  The proficiency and Latin flavored drums put them in a different category in my mind.

Great band regardless of where they fall, I just listened to One More Astronaut last night.

Nirvana, then Alice, then Pearl Jam and finally Soundgarden. Melvins is a good call!
I also like Screaming Trees and Butthole Surfers, though I'm not sure we could consider that grunge... Ermm

Out of the list Soundgarden followed by Alice in Chains.I don't care for Nirvana or Pearl Jam.

I kinda like Pearl Jam and Alice In Chains, but grunge is really not my preferred genre to say the least...
