faith no more's the real thing came out in 89, so that was a couple years ago then, and "knock me down" and "higher ground" had gotten mother's milk some inroad

plus there's also sortsa uncool shit like warriorsoul that gets left out of the equation now....

or living colour was huge with all us

Someone interested in modern rock this decade would find it fruitful to write a book about 1991 (you could add the first Lollapalooza to that).

no doubt...

also Infectious Grooves "The Plague That Makes Your Booty Move" came out in 91, wiki tells me, which seems silly to say now but was probably just as influential to all us as RHCP

i saw a lot of Infectious Grooves videos on Headbanger's Ball back in the day but i don't really remember any songs/song titles specifically

as a big Pearl Jam stan i say them getting that many votes is bullshit

nothing less than a big 'ole booty-blastin single here in montreal (some dude), Wednesday, 26 August 2009 23:53 (3 years ago) Permalink

it's only 18 votes. Plus it was probably a big album at the time for lots on here.

pfunkboy (Herman G. Neuname), Wednesday, 26 August 2009 23:56 (3 years ago) Permalink

it was a huge album at the time for me, probably my first favorite album, but today I'd rank it in the lower half like roughly: Achtung > UYI2 > Nevermind > Black Album > Ten > BSSM > UYI1 > OOT

some dude, Thursday, 27 August 2009 00:04 (3 years ago) Permalink

its the 2nd best album there for me
