Favorite Rock album from the 90s? Favorite lead singer?

The Tea Party is easily my favorite Canadian band, and believe me when I say if you haven't seen them live, you are missing out!

Favorite album of the 90's would either go to Nirvana - In Utero or Weezer - Pinkerton (very underrated album!)

Singer is Jeff Martin of The Tea Party.

Honorable mention: The Offspring - Smash

My favorite album of the 90's, and still today, was "Smash" by The Offspring.

Honourable mentions to albums not yet stated:

New Miserable Experience - Gin Blossoms

Dookie - Green Day

Rage Against The Machine - Rage Against The Machine

Blood Sugar Sex Magik - Red Hot Chili Peppers

Haven't seen much for GnR, Stone Temple Pilots, Nickelback (Detangler was a great album).

Growing older I still think Smash is up there but New Miserable Experience is excellent. As I grow older, the lyrics and meanings of the songs are great. All in all, I think New Miserable Experience is classified as a college rock album of the 90's when it is actually quite deeper if you listen to the whole album and know some of the background.

Hard to pick just 1 as the ultimate "favourite", and "rock" is such a generic and limiting description now with so many sub-genres...

But, I don't think any band made quite as much of a quantum leap from 1 LP to the next as when TOOL dropped Ænima in 1996. Again, I'm not sure if it's the LP of the entire decade, but, it's definitely so far beyond most everything else that came out tha decade that it deserves its' own category.

So many people say that the 90's were a dead period for Rock. I say, "Bologna!"

Albums - Achtung! Baby - U2, Sweet Oblivion - Screaming Trees, Apple - Mother Love Bone, Pearl Jam - Ten, Pearl Jam - Vs., Metallica - Metallica, Soundgarden - Badmotorfinger, Alice in Chains - Dirt, Van Halen - For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge, Temple Of The Dog... many more, too!

Singers - Mark Lanegan, Eddie Vedder, Bono, Layne Staley, Andrew Wood, Chris Cornell, Sammy Hagar, Billy Corgan.

Songs - One - U2, Nearly Lost You - Screaming Trees, Runaround - Van Halen, Black - Pearl Jam, Rooster - AIC, Enter Sandman - Metallica, Hunger Strike - Temple Of The Dog.

Soooooooooo much more great music from the 90's not mentioned.
