Comment:

Between the second-coming of Santana, the shifting sounds of Green Day and No Doubt, and the chart-crashing debuts of Third Eye Blind, Counting Crows, and a record-breaking Alanis Morissette — [i]Jagged Little Pill[/i] sold more than 16 million copies — the '90s is one of music's most impossible-to-pin-down decades. Call it an identity crisis, but we prefer plowing through all the subgenres and scenes like a stack of complimentary buffet plates. A soundtrack of our lives feast, if you will, featuring glimmers of grunge (Smashing Pumpkins, Pearl Jam, Soul Asylum), mood-lifting pop (the Cardigans, Del Amitri, 4 Non Blondes), beachside dude rock (Smash Mouth, Sugar Ray, Sublime), and enough enduring icons to show us how things were done in the good ol' days (Sting, U2, R.E.M.).
