You forgot "Unbelievable" by EMF!!!!

All kidding aside Northco, you had NO Catherine Wheel on your list..... :-s .....without question the best band of the 90's, at least the early/mid 90's. And with regards to Uncle Tupelo, just about everyone of their songs is better than just about every other song that was put out from 91-94.....so to single just "one" out for them is unfair.

Here are a few of my personal fav's from the 90's

REM - Sweetness Follows
Morrisey - You're The One For Me, Fatty
Helmet - In The Meantime
Fugazi - Facet Squared
Jane's Addiction - 3 Days
Slayer/Ice-T - Disorder
Ministry - N.W.O. .....or..... Just One Fix
Sinead O'Connor - Last Day of Our Aquaintance (that album was released in the US in '90.....great album by the way)
Prong - Snap Your Fingers, Snap Your Neck
Reverand Horton Heat - Baddest of the Bad
Tragically Hip - Grace, Too
Smashing Pumpkins - Bury Me ....or.... I Am One ....or.... Siva
Neil Young - Harvest Moon (the entire album)
Belly - Feed the Tree ....or.... Seal My Fate
Danzig - Left Hand Black
Urge Overkill - Bionic Revolution

I'm sure I'll think of more, those are just off the top of my head.

I remeber cause I worked at the Hazelwood and North West Plaza Streetside records in June of 1989 until March of 1990 adn the B-52's album was released the day I started working there. (there was a girl that worked there that was a Huge B-52's and Dr. Who Fan...she even made a Tom baker era Dr. Who scarf...but yet still attractive...goofy...but attractive...but not quite as much as the goth Bauhaus girl...that I dated for a while worked there...never mix work and pleasure.)
that may have been my one of my favorite Jobs of all time I worked with some great people. I got to meet a lot of bands that would do instores. Ultraman played a midnight show at the northwest streetside..it was awesome.
Our store also won the Tora! Tora! display contest and got a free dinner and Tora! Tora! came to the store...God were they BAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fudge, Killdozer's version of Unbelievable was awesome at the breadown point near the end Michael Gerald sings in his Low Growl "Your So un-F***ing-GodD*mn-Believable"

Killdozer did some other great Covers:
Ode to Billy Joe
Take the MOney and Run
Nasty
Cinammon Girl
American Pie
Funk 49
Hush

But there best song was "The Pig Was Cool"

With the Verse
"We went to Journey Show
We sat in the 33rd row.
Then The Band Played Wheel in Sky
That when We decided to get High.
We started passing and it was lit.
But we looked up and said this is it.
But he grabed and took hit
and all he said was that was good SH*T.

The Pig Was cool

it goes something like that

Fudge--You're right on with the Slayer/Ice-T track "Disorder." I start the day with that song every single morning. Better than a shot of adrenaline.

You're also right in that every track on every Uncle Tupelo album deserves inclusion.

I'd also include a lot of Tool (Opiate, Undertow, & Aenima are pretty damn good!)

Hey, what year did Cannibal Corpse's "Eating the Entrails from a Dead Virgin's ****" come out?

Lenny Kravitz had a lot of good songs in the 90's always liked how he mixes Motown, Funk and 70's hard rock all together . Badmotorfinger by Sound Garden is also one of my favorites Northco.

Anything by Dwight is all right! :)
