Temple of the Dog and Mad Season are so, so good. I hate how the former is viewed by many as a one song novelty band, the album is fantastic start to finish.

Temple of the Dog is a masterpiece. What’s the one song you refer to?

While it eventually became his main band, the first Twilight Singers album was basically a side project for Greg Dulli. Such an underrated album, I wish there were more like it.

Hunger Strike (or to tie this to the other thread, “that grunge song ‘I’m Going Hungry’”).

I’d love to get another Them Crooked Vultures album.

It’s hard to say, but Sunset Rubdown’s Dragonslayer might even be better than any Wolf Parade album.

The first Foo Fighters album I guess would count considering Dave was writing it while in Nirvana and playing songs for Kurt. Say what you want about them but this album will always be amazing.

This probably won’t be a popular opinion, but Tom Delonge’s Boxcar Racer album might be better than any Blink 182 one (barring the self-titled one).

That’s a big shout but I’d have to say Wolf Parade are slightly better. Spencer Krug has been in a few bands hasn’t he?

Moon Duo

United Nations

The Amps

Even just The Breeders?
