Wasn't Candlebox's biggest claim to fame being the only 'grunge' band signed to Madonna's label?

Don't know about the only, but they were signed to her label.

Nirvana would have to be the best of them overall for me but I wouldn't give them that silly grunge label because they had a sound far different from bands like STP, Peral Jam, Alice in Chains, etc.

The next band I'd say is Mudhoney tho.

From the bands listed i suppose my picks would be Tad and AIC but my absolute favorite is the trance band Sky Cries Mary, they had such a great psychedelic sound on some of their 90s releases.

Nice to see another SCM fan around! They'd definitely be my pick for best "90s Seattle Era" band too!

Hey, I like Candlebox. They were certainly a ****ty Pearl Jam rip off band, but they had some entertaining songs. Them and Puddle of Mudd are the only two post-grunge bands that I can think of that I actually like.
