Anyway as to the list I would have to say its a tie between Soundgarden & Alice In Chains. Both those bands kicked so much ass, I miss em both.

Giles... THANK YOU. Outside of Nirvana, my favorite "grunge" band from the early 90's has to be Screaming Trees. For the most part, I don't like this type of music. Zzzzzzzzz.

Alice in Chains would be fav. band on that list, but I agree that a lot of people would be mad if you labeled them "grunge".
On a side note, I recently started listening to Seaweed again. Broke out their album "Four" the other day. I still like Seaweed, how about anyone else?
Take Bush and Hole off of that list please - they degrade it.

Yes. A band that never got much attention. I still have to get their last album Actions & Indications.

I'm with Josh on this one. I think Smashing Pumpkins should be on that list though, and take Bush off.
It's really cool to see how many people are into AIC, which was my pic. Nirvana was great, as were (are?) many other bands on the list, but AIC produced masterpieces. I think everyone needs to add "AIC: Dirt" to their collections.

I like Nirvana the best, I also like Soundgarden, but I don't really think they are "grunge" other than being from Seattle (and I still prefer Nirvana to Soundgarden).
I like at least some music by most of those bands, although I'm not overfond of AIC or Pearl Jam, and don't like Bush at all.
I'm maybe one of the few still left who actually like Hole, as well. At least, I like (a lot) Live Through This.

Faith No More is not a grunge band.
I chose Soundgarden! It's grunge. Soundgarden existed before Nirvana and Pearl Jam. Although, as what have been posted above, Soundgarden would not have existed if not for the Pixies and the Melvins...
