There are great artists waiting to be discovered in every decade or era. You just have to sift through a lot of dreck to get there. Fortunately, it seems the longer past the era you are, the more the dreck falls away.

Thanks for the list. I sorta slept through the 90's, music wise. I checked the first one one your list, Tori Amos, and I like what I hear. There's a lot to check out here. Thanks. Little Earthquakes and Under the Pink are my favorites of her albums. My wife and I have all of them except for a couple of the bootleg albums that were released a few years ago.

Natalie Merchant was very popular in the mid 90's, soon after she left 10,000 Maniacs.

Did I not notice NIN? Or Marylin? Helmet. King's X. Crowded House, Wilco, Ozzy's Randy Rhodes years. There's always great stuff. Always. (and waayyyyy baaaad: the 90's = The Marcarena, too!)
Here ya go, kiddies: I bought my first 45 in 1959! I was six years old and it has never stopped. Looking back, I see no holes, no points where either the bad AND/OR the good of linear history just drops out then reappears.
I've never been at a loss to find great "new" music in any year of any decade. New things by old favorites and new things by new things.
The hunt is a big part of the fun. Then I can have them all for "my own" until everyone else finds them. Like No Doubt and The Rembrandts (awful thing, that "Friends' theme!)
"Now" is always an awesome time to be alive and listening.

Always call the place you live a house. When you're old, everyone else will call it a home.

Bears, beets, Battlestar Galactica.

The Offspring, Blind Melon and Korn also had some big albums in the 90's.

You can't forget Salt-n-Pepa either Adrian.
