All quality bands
Grunge was really just a marketing name. If most of those bands existed today, they'd be called Stoner Metal. Hell, The Melvins are and Mark Lanegan from Screaming Trees sings with Queens of the Stone Age who are Stoner Rock royalty. They get associated with dreck like Stone Temple Pilots and Candlebox and Bush, but that was Corporate Grunge and deserves that title. Those bands were the Nickelback of my high school years.
when people approach you in 15 years telling you that black veil brides or some other cheesefest is good music, how will you respond? this is my life at this point. there's a grip of shit from the 90's that was pretty much common knowledge was shit, but now time has washed away a lot of the contempt people used to have for them. scott weiland was prolly the most annoying rock star of my teenage years. between his heroin-induced tour flakeouts to his little beef with mtv, dude was a constant joke. people forget now that him and gavin rossdale were plastered all over teen beat back then. they were treated the same way timberlake and bieber are treated now. bush, stp, candlebox, seven mary three, verve pipe, goo goo dolls, etc. all a bunch of crap that still gets radio play on buttrock stations. they've pretty much distilled the 90's into a 50-75 song palette, mixing the good with the useless. it's changed the way i look at music from different eras
also...i never really considered smashing pumpkins grunge, mad season are more an extension of aic and soul asylum i just don't have much of an opinion about
And satan it seems to me that your problems with stp stem from shit outside the music They're not the greatest band to ever exist but c'mon there decent and comparing them to nickel back just makes all your paragraphs pretty useless

So I have to also point out that they suck? It wasn't implied?
Idc what you listen to, tbh. It's a silly argument. The only difference I see personally between them and Nickelback is that they had a prettier frontman. The music is of the same quality imo

Seen AAL 5 times and ATB 3 times though.
As much as I thought Smashing Pumpkins were kinda gay back in the day, if they happened now they'd be the best band on the radio
