The Start of the 1990s
Just like the 1980s, the 1990s also gave birth
to a new kind of rock music. The big rock music was known as “Grunge Rock”. The
80s Hair Band scene was still around in the early 1990s, but soon faded away. Some
of my favorite bands from this era would be Pearl Jam, Nirvana, Nickelback,
Green Day, The Offspring, Fuel, Fire House, and my favorite band of all time,
Buckcherry. The Grunge Rock sounded louder and not as sharp as the Hair Bands
but still had a great sound. The synthesizer was one of the only major changes in
the instruments used. It really fascinates me how much the sound of the music
can change with the use of the same instruments. There was also like a more
popish type rock in the 1990s. It sounded like a mix of the hair metal and pop
from the 80s. some of the bands that I like from the genre would be the Red Hot
Chili Peppers, Cage the Elephant, Sublime, and Incubus. If you asked me which
style It really all depends on what kind of mood I am in when I am listening to
it. My favorite Grunge rock songs are Better Man from Pearl Jam, Sorry from
Buckcherry, “or any song from Buckcherry”, Shakin’ Hands from Nickelback, Shimmer
from Fuel, All I Want from The Offspring, All American Idiot from Green Day,
and Reach for the Sky from Firehouse. Some of my favorite songs from the pop
rock style are Two Princesses from Spin Doctors, Santa Monica from Everclear,
the Other side from the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Back Against the Wall from Cage
the Elephant, and Wrong Way from Sublime. This decade was very prosperous for
the rock industry and hopefully it continues to grow. here are a few songs so you can get a feel how the sound is.
