I'm loving this band. A grungy outfit incorporating bits of psychedelica who produced music from 1985 through to 1996.

These guys belong in the B-List thread. They were highly regarded but never caught fire the way Soundgarden and Nirvana did. I guess they are a band that falls alongside the likes of Meat Puppets and such.

"Nearly Lost You" was probably their most well known hit, so if you want to check them out, thats a good one to download. I'll also throw in my two cents and recommend "All I know" and "Shadow Of The Season.

So I'm going to say if you enjoy Soundgarden you'll enjoy these guys.

Vocalist Mark Lanegan sings in a similar style to Cornell although sounding different in actual tones.

Some may know Lanegan from his solo work and QOTSA.
