The Dambuilders...they were from Hawaii and had Joan Wasser on violin.


Against The Stars by The Dambuilders


Link


Hazel...they had Pete Krebs and a guy who was an official member who only danced on stage.


Toreador Of Love by Hazel


Link


And of course...Ass Ponys. Electric Rock Music is one of the best albums of the decade. Including an awesome song about stuff at Grandma's house, and of course "Little Bastard".......

Nobody mentioned Flowered Up or Sleeper. I was in love with Louise Wener for a couple of years.
Did Elastica get a mention? Another female-led band. Totally brilliant if a tiny bit derivative.
Talking of derivitave Ocean Colour Scene kicked ass for a while. But if Oasis can nick loads from the Beatles and 60s bands why not? I mean Paul Weller loved the Kinks...


A Life With Brian by Flowered Up


Smart by Sleeper


Elastica by Elastica


Moseley Shoals by Ocean Colour Scene


Plus Hanson of course. Totally underrated. On some days I think Mmm Bop is my favourite song of the 90s. aAways cheers me up. Ha ha... I do seriously like it though.

Jellyfish! For me Jellyfish are hands down the most underrated band of the 90s.
Then again I can see why they don't get more love, they definitely don't sound like you're typical 90s band. They weren't around for very long either...
Both their albums are well worth checking out though


Agree.

Jellyfish and King’s X were my fave bands in the early 90’s.

I've listened to this album about 10 times since I discovered it, and I think it's a long lost classic.

Just found out, via Wikipedia, that the Maher Brothers, in Flowered Up both died, in recent years. RIP.
That is so sad. Too young.

Would also add Mouse On Mars and Nobukazu Takemura.

Obviously, they're not as good as Pixies or Nirvana, but BUSH still didn't deserve the flack they got from critics. I still regularly listen to Sixteen Stone and Razorblade Suitcase.


Dead on, Bush is underrated. I like some one-hit wonders from the 90s who had more than one good song, like the Toadies and Blind Melon.
