AIC and Soundgarden were more popular amongst my rock/metal friends as neither are grunge.
Soundgarden no, they are a metal band that softened
but AIC to my mind are the quintessential grunge act
In Jerry's own words:
We're a lot of different things ... I don't quite know what the mixture is, but there's definitely metal, blues, rock and roll, maybe a touch of punk. The metal part will never leave, and I never want it to.

I thought grunge was less about the music style/sound and more about them looking dirty.
They’re all just miming to Neil Young’s Mirrorball anyway
fuck Neil Young

It gives me the shits whenever she's used as the "epitome of an attractive woman
was suuuuuper hot before she became the sack of bones she is now
She was hot in Tomb Raider and Mr and Mrs Smith. Clearly she was always a bunny boiler as Brad Pitt has found out

1 Every Fern thread will eventually turn into a discussion about the relative merits of a dozen or so 90s rock bands.
2 The most influential album of the 1990s wasn’t by any of the bands you’ve all been talking about, it was Jagged Little Pill.
3 There is no number 3The lesson is involve Glen Ballard in the production of your album.

Chris Cornell sure did, his sappy later stuff was unlistenable.

Ana de Amas does nothing for me.
I had to look her up - I think she is extremely pretty but lacks sexiness
@Bones @Tordah
You're weird.
(I assume there's a gif/meme/whatever for that, but... fuck that shit)Watch Knock Knock - and then tell me she "lacks sexiness".
For fuck's sake.Now - Angelina Jolie - does absolutely nothing for me. It gives me the shits whenever she's used as the "epitome of an attractive woman".
Yeah, looked her up with "knock knock" added, that's a lot better.
Knew her from Knives Out, where she obviously wasn't supposed to be hot (but rather pretty).Still think there is a weird line where too much beauty can reduce a woman's eroticism.

3 There is no number 3You oughta know is a cracking tune.
Ironic is a massive mindfuck for me. Nothing she says is ironic, it's all just shithouse luck. So I wonder if the irony is in the song title being called ironic.
Rest is a bit meh for me, but I acknowledge it has it's place in history. My GF at the time absolutely worshipped the album so it does bring back a few memories.
