The more important band? Pearl Jam.
The band I prefer today? Stone Temple Pilots.
Then again, even Pearl Jam's importance is overstated by fans and much of the music press, IMO.
I own several of their albums but don't worship at the altar of Eddie. They're a good 90s alt rock band -- nothing more, nothing less -- and I can rattle off two dozen bands from the same time period I'd rather listen to.
