How could I forget Weezer? Blue album, 1994, and churning out hits ever since, even if most of them have been in the 2000s.

Juliana Hatfield had a couple of dynamite albums.

Bob Mould formed Sugar (shout out, BrenR!) and then had some more solo albums.

My favorite Ministry album is still Psalm 69 from 1992.

Other acts I like from the era: Belly, the Breeders, the Cranberries, Radiohead, Morrissey, Alanis Morissette, Liz Phair, TMBG, Hole, the Presidents of the USA.

Bears, beets, Battlestar Galactica.
