One of my first albums was Pump.
Technically 89. But so the fuck what. Permanent Vacation through Nine Lives was a helluva run
Ab-so-fucking-lute-ly
You gotta love that sweet taste of India, Matt.
Nine Lives is the best record of that run...even with garbage like Fly Away From Here on it...Get a Grip sucked, Pump was massively overplayed, and PV had 4-5 good to decent songs

Songs that impacted on rock radio and made Billboard's 1994 year end singles list:
John Mellencamp, Wild Night Collective Soul, Shine Crash Test Dummies, Mmm Mmm Mmm Meatloaf, I'd Do Anything for Love 10,000 Maniacs, Because the Night Cranberries, Linger Gin Blossoms, Found Out About You Bruce Springsteen, Streets of Philedelphia Aerosmith, Crazy Aerosmith, Amazing Tom Petty, Mary Jane's Last Dance Bon Jovi, Always
Some other rock radio #1's from that same year: Pincushion, ZZ Top Deuces are Wild, Aerosmith
Van Halen's Don't Tell Me What Love Can Do missed the list be mere weeks. Shucks.
Meanwhile, no list that involves the phrase 'dominating the airwaves' should ever include Liz Phair, Cracker, or the Meat Puppets.
The point is, you're right about the late 90's...it was pretty full of amelodic, gripless posteuring. But you put on your rose glasses for the era that you remember fondly, which was mostly decorated with unremarkable shit, legacy artists getting their last gaspy wheez around the chart circuit, and songs about being cumbersome to your girl.
It sure did in minneapolis due to Mary Lucia rocking Zone 105 FM. The list I stated was absolute truth in my world and thats all that matters. The rest of the world was full of idiots.
I remember Mary Lucia and Zone 105. 93.7 The Edge was awesome before Zone 105 even came on the air. Those stations were listened to nearly every waking hour during my youth.
