    there is no such thing as grunge

    Soul Asylum - Best of the Twin Tone Years (just came out) Great underrated band, especially this early stuff. Cobain liked them.

    The Replacements - Let It Be (recently remastered, I came late to this title, it is brilliant and was released in '84. A sign of things to come).

    Screaming Trees - Ocean of Confusion (new compilation on Epic Legacy) - great band from that period, although like S Asylum, slightly before (87...), very influential among their peers at the time. Cobain and Mark Lanegan were best friends.

    Gotta love Automatic for the people.I always think of that in the same category as Ten and Nevermind.

    Check out Mark Lanegan's solo albums Winding Sheet and Whisky For The Holy Ghost, Tad - Inhaler and Infrared Riding Hood, Mudhoney everything is good by them you cant go wrong with Mudhoney, check out some Dinosaur Jr again there isnt such a thing as a bad Dinosaur Jr album(imo).
    And if you want some real grunge check out Endino's Worm, Jack Endino's band Jack along with The Melvins and Skin Yard are what you'd call the Grandfathers of the "grunge" sound, Jack produced Nirvana's debut album Bleach which is also an essential grunge purchase.

    One of the best albums ever made...but grunge?? I'd hardly classify anything REM ever did as grunge.

    Not necessarily grunge but it was it isn't too far from Nirvana Unplugged or Vitalogy in terms of atmosphere and lyrics.

    and definitely grunge era. that time period had a ton of great music come out of it.

    take a look at 2000-2005. doodoo. some good bands, don't get me wrong, but not the quality of music that we've listed here.

    Like everyone said Siamese Dream is a must own. Here are 2 I didn't see mentioned:


    Hole - Live Through This (everybody hates Courtney but this is a fantastic album IMO)
    Singles the Motion Picture Soundtrack
    Brian
