    Doesn't have to be in order, just 10 of your favorite 90's Alternative songs (this includes 90's grunge)

    Youtube links would be sweet as well!

    Man, its hard enough to list the top songs from particular bands. I could list several from Pearl Jam alone that I thought were all top ten. But I will hold it to one per band.



    Pearl Jam - Even Flow

    Silverchair - Tomorrow

    Bush - Machinehead

    Alice in Chains - Man in a Box

    STP - Plush

    Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit

    Soundgarden - Black Hole Sun

    Rage Against the Machine - Bulls on Parade

    Smashing Pumpkins - Tonight

    RHCP - Under The Bridge

    Just a few:

    Pavement - Fillmore Jive

    Neutral Milk Hotel - In the Aeroplane Over the Sea

    Red House Painters - Brown Eyes

    Radiohead - Paranoid Android

    The Dismemberment Plan - You are Invited

    Guided By Voices - I am a Scientist

    Radiohead - No Surprises

    Belle and Sebastian - Get Me Away From Here, I'm Dying

    Beck - The Devil's Haircut

    Modest Mouse - Trailer Trash

    And I could list many more from The Pixies, Built to Spill, Wilco, R.E.M., Elliot Smith, Weezer, The Flaming Lips, and My Blood Valentine.

    I could have also put the entire OK Computer album because it's near perfect.
