@MN5 Soundgarden and Alice in Chains are probably the only straight grunge bands I still like. I like the doom and stoner rock/metal stuff from that era a lot more.
I wouldn't classify Soundgarden as grunge. Alice in Chains yes. They are fucking awesome tho.
just realised every single band in my initial post lost a singer
could also add my perennial favourites from that era Faith no More given their original singer before Mike Patton succumbed to the Black Dog last year..... -
I just found a Metallica live acoustic set they did for some charity gig that has just been put on Spotify
It's pretty good for something different
Bleeding Me would be in my top 10 Metallica songs (i doubt there are many people anywhere who would say that) and the acoustic version is fucking tops.

Once upon a time I would have. Was on regular rotation when the Load/Reload albums came out., along with The Outlaw Torn, Carpe Diem Baby, Low Mans Lyric & The Memory Remains.
Of all those, only The Outlaw Torn is still played. Probably in my Top 10 Metallica tracks.
Something else worth checking out if you like Hardwired (as I do). They did a professionally filmed version of them playing Halo On Fire in Portugal. It's absolutely epic, but to show how concert demographics differ ... at one point they should a few kids aged around 8-10 in the front row!

Outlaw torn is fucking great. I really like Load I think it's a great album. Reload not so much.

Drive time listening this Friday was particularly nice due to these two...

@mariner4life Fugazi ... the ultimate one-hit wonder (for me). Waitng Room.
Tried to listen to the album it was on once about 20 years ago and couldn't get involved beyond the one song. Never tried again!
After listening to Waiting Room just now I can't even get into the one hit wonder. What is weird is I have no knowledge of their music, well I should say memory, because I had mates who used to be big fans and there's no chance I wouldn't have heard them at their place or in their cars.
I saw Fugazi about a dozen times. And why not...? For a $7 concert, they couldn’t be beat. Fantastic band live.

Citizen Fear.

I’m definitely not a left-winger, but I had nothing but absolute mad respect for the band. They walked the talk. They were not phoneys. They were completely committed and passionate and gave the best bang for a buck of any band in rock history.

Turning the clock back nearly 40 years and thrashing Stiff Little Fingers - Hanx on the headphones at work at the moment.
Saw them live last night for the first time ever despite this album being one of my favourites ever since it came out in 1980. Still crack out a good gig with plenty of energy.
Bonus was Eddie and the Hot Rods as support.Edit: Jake Burns managed a call out to the events in NZ last week. I won't mention exactly how he led to his comments as the thread would have to shift quickly to the politics thread. The sentiment was appreciated though.

@Nevorian absolute classic
Can’t remember if I’ve posted this already but this is Adrian Borland from The Sound doing an acoustic version. He was a contemporary and big fan of Ian Curtis, probably in part due to sharing mental health issues. Anyway, what I love about Adrian’s version is that he strips the song back to emphasise the lyrics which highlights just how stunning the song is.
