Screaming Trees much less so, but I wouldn't change their album based solely on genre relevancy. I haven't listened to them in a while, but if Dust is their best album, then it should stay.
Also, lol @ ****ing over Pearl Jam. **** that band.
3. All the other first wave no wave bands started around '77, after getting tired of punk, whereas Suicide started half a decade earlier cause they thought Iggy Pop and the VU were cool. Album release dates can tell a misleading story.

1. I like the Smashing Pumpkins, and I think a lot of other people do too, so they're staying.
2. Genre relevancy is everything to these psychos, I gotta keep these as genre-relevant as possible.
3. I'd argue that their sound is more important than the time period in this case. Also, the fight is about the album, not the band.
