I was born in '94 and the first music I remember from when I was little were the post-grunge bands like Smashing Pumpkins, Third Eye Blind, Goo Goo Dolls, Gin Blossoms, etc.. I like grunge music like Nirvana or Pearl Jam but never really get much further than that. Smashing Pumpkins is still a favorite though, and I thought the last album they put out was fantastic.
It was kind of hard for me to get into the Britpop scene being that I live in the US and didn't grow up hearing those bands, but for a while I was kind of amazed that all these bands (Oasis, Blur, Cast, Pulp, Suede, etc) were popular during my lifetime yet I had never heard of most of them. I was really into that a few years ago just because it was way different than the 90s music I was used to. To this day Oasis is one of my favorite bands xD
In the past year or two I discovered shoegaze and decided I liked bands like My Bloody Valentine and Ride.
And then there's U2, who put out two good albums in the 90s and also random indie bands like Pavement that are a nice listen every once in a while. Can't forget Blind Melon either. Or Radiohead. The list goes on..
Point being, I love 90s music!
