 | The Smashing Pumpkins - Greatest Hits - Rotten Apples by The Smashing Pumpkins
Buy new: $11.99 / Used from: $6.15 this is a good collection to have, but I do recommend buying the Pumpkins' first three albums (Gish, Siamese Dream, and Mellon Collie and The Infinite Sadness) over this. but then again, I am a bit obsessed with them, so...
|
 | Nirvana by Nirvana
Buy new: $12.99 / Used from: $3.49 again, this is a good album to have, but I would also recommend Nevermind as a starter.
|
 | A-Sides by Soundgarden
Buy new: $11.99 / Used from: $1.99 this doesn't even begin to cover it...
|
 | rearviewmirror (Greatest Hits 1991-2003) by Pearl Jam
Buy new: $10.99 / Used from: $6.88 don't be frightened by the remixed versions of a couple of the songs--the remixes actually sound the same as, if not even slightly better than, the original masters.
|
 | Foo Fighters by Foo Fighters
Buy new: $7.99 / Used from: $4.53 their first album, which I personally think is their best
|
 | Singles: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack
Buy new: $6.99 / Used from: $0.49 this album is probably the best one to buy in order to introduce yourself to grunge music.
|
 | Loveless by My Bloody Valentine
Buy new: $6.99 / Used from: $3.90 the name sounds kinda emo, but the band is anything but...they're better.
|
 | Alice in Chains - Greatest Hits by Alice in Chains
Buy new: $6.99 / Used from: $4.94 a very small collection of AIC's hits. there's another album with a larger collection of songs, but this one's less expensive and gets down to the basics.
|
 | Ocean of Confusion: Songs of Screaming Trees 1989-1996 by Screaming Trees
Buy new: $7.99 / Used from: $2.96 pick up the Singles soundtrack before you go for this, just so you'll know who this band is to begin with.
|
 | The Offspring - Greatest Hits by The Offspring
Buy new: $10.99 / Used from: $7.28 yes, this is punk...but I always figured that punk was a kind of alternative...you know, like an alternative to really bad 90's pop music
|
 | International Superhits! by Green Day
Buy new: $12.99 / Used from: $2.99 another punk band I feel belongs here
|
 | Solid Gold Hits by Beastie Boys
Buy new: $10.99 / Used from: $6.43 oh come on, you like them and you know it...this album does leave off a few hits, though. but it has the basics, and that's all that really counts.
|
 | Sixteen Stone by Bush
Buy new: $13.99 / Used from: $0.25 probably their best album
|
 | 7even Year Itch: Collective Soul Greatest Hits 1994-2001 by Collective Soul
Buy new: $8.99 / Used from: $2.75 I didn't even know this band had a greatest hits album...
|
 | Ear-Bleeding Country: The Best of Dinosaur Jr. by Dinosaur Jr.
Buy new: $11.98 / Used from: $4.21 these guys are a little more 80's than 90's, but they're really great nonetheless
|
 | Up from the Catacombs: The Best of Jane's Addiction by Jane's Addiction
Buy new: $14.99 / Used from: $2.79 Jane's Addiction is also a bit more 80's than 90's, but they're not cheesy like most 80's music is
|
 | Garbage by Garbage
Buy new: $14.99 / Used from: $0.84 this should have been their only album...
|
 | Greatest Hits by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Buy new: $13.99 / Used from: $7.93 not my fave greatest hits collection (it's missing the song "Aeroplane," which is one of my favorite RHCP songs), but it works as a good intro to the Chili Peppers
|
 | Frogstomp by Silverchair
Buy new: $6.99 / Used from: $0.01 grunge from down under...this album contains their only US hit, "Tomorrow"
|
 | Thank You by Stone Temple Pilots
Buy new: $11.99 / Used from: $6.74 I actually like this band, so shut up.
