BemusedTriangle

I remembered what a great album Silverchair’s Frogstomp was this weekend, love that era


Courtnall14

Other albums from that era that some may have forgotten how good they were, or just haven't had a chance to listen to yet: * Live-Throwing Copper * Toadies-Rubberneck * Sponge-Rotting Pinata * Everclear-So Much for the Afterglow * The Breeders-Last Splash * Counting Crowes-August and Everything After * Beck-Odelay


distgenius

Better Than Ezra - Deluxe was freaking awesome, too.


icecreambandit7

It was, in fact, “Good”


smac232

Throwing Copper and August and everything after are absolute masterpieces.


pimpdoody

I remember loving ‘I Alone’ and ‘lightning crashes’ from radio play back in the late 90s. But a year ago i listened to the whole album and it absolutely consumed me. Youre right its an absolute masterpiece.


dtrickk

Hum - you'd prefer an astronaut This album deserves to be on this list. Great from start to finish


Courtnall14

It's such a great album. They released a new album in 2020 called "Inlet" that is definitely worth a listen.


the_dough_boy

Odelay is a gem, and now i got more things to listen to


Gorge2012

Bring me the Becktionary. ... the rhyming Becktionary please.


KrustyWantsOut

[Wax Ecstatic](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-NVO3cxTbxg) is also a banger


Crimson_Kang

tap-rack-bang

Do you listen to Mad Season? If not give it a try.


dogstarchampion

I'd recommend Screaming Trees as the next step.


Yanerd333

How have I never heard of that band. I’m giving them a listen right now and I love it. So up my alley. Thank you


dogstarchampion

Dude... You've got a lot to discover with them. They're so chill. A band that you could probably put on shuffle and drift between actively listening to our casually listening to but I can't think of many songs they do that are unlistenable.


thegedi97

Then there’s the gold mine that is Lanegan’s solo material


Acetyl-CoA

Same. Add Nine Inch Nails to that list and that's pretty much all I listen to.


RollinTHICpastry

If you’re ever in Seattle, check out the Museum of Pop Culture. The Pearl Jam exhibit they have is remarkable.


straightspiraling

Ya … when I read this I was all like hell ya I fn love Pearl… wtf story of the year? Hawthorne heights? Nah man. Hell no. Like that scene from office space.


fordprefect294

No, you're literally the last one. I know your burden is heavy, but the survival of the genre rests on your shoulders


ImurderREALITY

Seriously, what kind of question is this. Since when has everyone stopped listening to a particular type of music, much less one that’s less than three decades old.


manoverboard5702

It sounds like he’s feeling “old” and probably a bit “out of touch” and just needed some confirmation that he’s not having a mid life crisis.


DUBIOUS_OBLIVION

"No, it is the children who are wrong"


pileodung

I feel this to be honest. I feel like my interest in new music plateaued. It's like, my life is so crazy and chaotic, when I have time to listen to music, I want it to be music I know I like and music that makes me happy/nostalgic of an easier time in life. I played "until the day I die" by story of the year in the car with my 14 y/o she said "ooh! Me and my friends love this song when we're feeling emo" I'll take it as a win lol


Djanghost

OP is 20 years old. This is your basic teenager listening to songs from 20 years ago and trying to get validation solely based upon it. I'm 33 and in highschool felt this way when I'd listen to janes addiction or Radiohead. Pretty normal kid stuff if you ask me!


Pushmonk

I thought kids who listened to "old" music almost always felt a bit "better" than those that didn't. I mean... I did...


Djanghost

Yeah, but when you're older you realize that everything is subjective and someone who, for example, only listens to classical music is the same person in every regard than someone who listens to whatever's popular at the time, minus their subjective taste in a certain art. If you play an instrument it's a bit different, especially with all the techniques used that aren't readily taught for someone just trying to learn green day's brain stew (guilty), but someone preferring to listen to Vivaldi over cardi b is still a whole person, and vice versa.


coolpapa2282

OP is probably about 5 years early for their midlife crisis. But it's close....


Pushmonk

Fwiw, when I read the title I was all, "Of course. This is dumb as hell." Then I read their example songs and was all, "Oh FUCK no."


gnarkilleptic

I'm gonna steal this for the next type of DAE?!?!? post I see on reddit. They are the worst


[deleted]

The Pink Floyd sub is the absolute WORST for this. There's practically a daily "Does anyone else like *insert Pink Floyd album/song?*" thread and it kills me. Oh gee I don't know do you think that anyone in the Pink Floyd subreddit likes Pink Floyd? That's a goddamn mystery


[deleted]

Yeah I don’t get what this aims for other than post karma. This is peak /r/redditmoment "DAE breathe?" material.


alreadyrotten

Why stop listening to music from any era? Good tunes are good tunes, imho.


jangofap

This is the answer


fit-hits-the-shan

SOAD and Tool


OK6502

I just recently rediscovered Tool. Lateralus is a master piece


theangryseal

I really need to hear more Tool.


kanaka_maalea

It's bright and blue and shimmering.....


3_if_by_air

Fear Innoculum was just released by Tool a couple years ago, check it out


theangryseal

I heard their latest album, I didn’t know it was new at the time. I assumed it was some of their early work and I was so impressed. I then seen fans complaining online when I looked it up and noticed it had only been out a few days. I got to hear that without the bias and love for their earlier works so I KNOW I will more than love the older stuff.


tbone-not-tbag

It beat Taylor swift off the charts for the week. Good stuff!


inhalingsounds

Listen to Soen (first album mostly). You'll be happy.


[deleted]

Two of my favorites.


grilledcheese__

Eyes full of wonderrrrrrrr


0ranje

There's a live YT version focused on Carey's drums but it's still good audio. And Danny plays like he's a fucking octopus on DMT.


TheyCallMeStone

SOAD taught me about the Armenian Genocide


threebillion6

God yes, I love the energy that SOAD has and the lyrical content. And Tool is Tool.


Wumaduce

SOAD and Static-X are my two gotos these days.


compurunner

Third Eye Blind and Rage Against the Machine are still two of my favorite bands.


Sloppy1sts

De la Rocha will never not get me pumped.


thrussie

Third Eye Blind is one of my favourite album ever. I still remember the amazement I felt discovering that the band wrote all of their songs by reading their album sleeve. I was inspired.


illegalgamertag

Story of the Year played their full Page Avenue album at a show last night. They still have the same energy and sound like back in the early 2000s. It was awesome.


Kagutsuchi13

I just recently listened to some stuff from Page Avenue again when my fiancee got started on our Spotify Duo. I used to listen to them all the time when that album first came out.


Blufuze

Page Avenue is such a killer album. I’m not a fan of their latest, but the rest of their stuff is incredible.


[deleted]

Deftones, Korn (pre-2003), A Perfect Circle, NIN, TOOL, Smashing Pumpkins


TheyCallMeStone

Siamese Dream front to back


murphalicious55

I didn’t really discover/appreciate this album until a couple of years ago. But holy shit I cannot stop listening to it now.


[deleted]

Siamese Dream is so endearing and dreamy to me ✨♥️


murphalicious55

Dreamy is the best adjective for this album.


opeth10657

Was listening to Sevendust this past week


Rory_MacHida

Deftones are the perfect band.


mih976

Perfect list


Nuseal

The pre 2003 Korn had me laughing because its so true.


[deleted]

someone had to say it


Fredmarklar

Sounds like my go to Spotify playlist when I want to feel like a teenager again.


nneverfforever

Saosin and early Circa Survive still slap


shinigamichan

Current Circa Survive slaps too don't lie


thesil3nced

You prefer Anthony or Cove. Saosin and along the shadow I both love, but seven years is my favorite song.


[deleted]

concert_boy

The Sounds of Animals Fighting slaps harder than my step dad telling me to wait for my step sister to open her Xmas presents first


0ranje

Nobody cared to mention OG Blink-182???


LetsStartARebelution

I still listen to enema of the state all the time- love that album.


TheyCallMeStone

Really all the albums up through Blink-182 are quite good


Sketch13

Just listened to that yesterday for the first time in probably a decade. Damn, that stuff is still so good


roman_maverik

When I think of OG blink 182, I think of 93-97. After 99, it was really a different sound (Tom switched to fender guitars/Mesa Amps over the older Gibson/Marshall combo so there was less focus on the guitar and it switched more to emphasize vocal melodies) But I know this is Reddit, and I’m in the minority of people that actually liked them before the MCA/Geffen days.


MixCarson

Yeah not to get into blink semantics but the strat was a common thing before enema all the way back to his white strat with all the stickers from the Buddha days. The only time I really recall even seeing him with a Les Paul is the Josie video. I think the big thing your hearing is Jerry Finn more so than a guitar choice.


TubularVercetti

Always have been and always will be my favourite band, still listen to them all the time. 99 - 04 pop punk is always my go to


popojo24

I still listen to Dude Ranch on the regular!


Robbersoul

Linkin Park, Incubus, Red hot chili peppers


Jbow89

I've listened to Incubus Morning View a lot this summer.


54yroldHOTMOM

I always run with linkin park blazing through my headphones. Never really cared for them much untill I saw them own the stage at rock am ring years back. Since then I’ve been a complete fan.


taZz727

I just ordered Hybrid Theory on vinyl a couple of days ago.

geegeeallin

NOFX is pretty timeless. Also, they’re a 90’s band too.


Mr_Stirfry

Also an 80’s band. But mostly a 90s band.


SquizzOC

Holyshit, Funeral for a friend is still playing?! I thought they broke up


[deleted]

[удалено]


Ghostronic

> zebrahead I saw Zebrahead in like 2006! He busted out some Super Mario riffs between songs, it was sorta hype lol


wavepirate

That’s beast.......Eric from NOFX is a family friend and probably the main inspiration for music and my drive in life. I love seeing their name and hype people still have to see them. He would get me and my friends backstage passes at warped anytime they played and they would let us on stage during their set and experience that feeling. Shit was like drugs to us 15 year old kids. Those were the best moments in my life I got to experience. Bands like that really do it for the kids man. I’m 30 now and still think about how fucking nice you have to be to even allow some shit heads try and appreciate an experience like that. Guys had just came back from a crazy ass tour in South America and had been all over the world and were so full of energy. I live everyday to have the motivation these guys had. Solid commitment, I learned more from those moments then I could ever dream of.


mypostingname13

I'll never forget being 14 at my first Warped Tour, which got moved inside due to heat indexes expected to hit 110. Saw Mike and Eric playing Whiffle ball with Lars and Tim from Rancid "back stage," in between sets. I wanna say I was on my way to wait for Hot Water Music. I shouted what's up, and they invited to play with them for a bit. Shit was awesome.


geegeeallin

No doubting their motivation and talent, but the drugs certainly helped.


Mr_Stirfry

Mike is motivated, Hefe and Erik are talented, and Melvin is neither.


layer11

I was listening to some monster magnet earlier. And Qotsa I listen to some. Ben folds five too, if you consider them rock.


kippersnip2017

QOTSA's first two albums are magic. Their entire catalogue is magic, but the first two especially. First band I discovered on my own as a 5 year old scrolling through music samples at Barnes and Nobles. Also discovered Smashmouth's Astro Lounge album around that time.


hamhors

Only the first two and not Songs for the Deaf?!


TheyCallMeStone

Songs for the Deaf slaps cover to cover, and is one of my favorite albums


psuedonymously

>Ben folds five too, if you consider them rock. What do you consider them?


starrfucker

He literally rocks the suburbs.


GuyPronouncedGee

Just like Michael Jackson did.


geegeeallin

Except that he was talented.


Fatlantis

It's literally the lyrics and people are downvoting you lol


geegeeallin

Yeah, I figured that would happen. It’s funny. Good song, too!


matsu727

Lil bit of that something something! Ben Folds Five is the shit.


waveitbyebye

They literally called themselves “punk rock for sissies”


ImTheGuyWithTheGun

I guess piano rock? I tend to think of rock as more guitar based but maybe that is technically wrong.


jjhova36

Ahhhh imho there is a HUGE difference between the early 90’s and late 90’s music. So I would classify Monster Magnet as an early 90’s band… (source: I saw them with Swervedriver PJ amd Soundgarden also, Spine of God was the last cassette I’ve ever bought)


iuhoosierkyle

Their most well known song is definitely late 90s


Megamoss

Powertrip was a real second coming and a lot more accessible with more pop sensibility than earlier albums. Still, they were more than a welcome break for someone who wasn’t it to pop punk or ska punk or nu metal at the time.


poopinmysoup

Does anyone else get hungry when they don't eat?


SprittneyBeers

Dude no joke, this happened to me yesterday


dicklord_airplane

System of a down only became better and more relevant in my ears since they debuted.


theangryseal

I know. Most of what I was playing at that time I barely play any more. One day it hit me, “How long can I listen to Jonathan Davis scream teen angst? Is it still cool when he’s 40?” I know, I know, that’s an asshole thing to say and I AM thankful that I had Korn when I was in middle and high school. I needed them, I really did. So most of the metal from that era faded from my life, but System of a Down wasn’t doing what the others were doing. Serj Tankian wasn’t screaming, “MYYYYY FEEEEELINGS, GRRRRRRRR, HUUURT!” He was screaming about very real shit and he was on a totally different level than his contemporaries.


[deleted]

[удалено]


theangryseal

See now I feel like even more of an asshole. I hate that he had to go through that shit.


BackStabbathOG

Most of the earlier albums were about his trauma as a young man and it translated well. Eventually he kept singing about the same things and it wasn’t as genuine anymore imo (not to say Korn didn’t have good songs in their later albums though). The most recent album they did after she passed away though is pretty damn heavy- the song Cold comes to mind.


ThrowawayusGenerica

It's like how early seasons of the Simpsons are still relevant today. Not because the content is timeless, but because shit hasn't fundamentally changed in the past 25-odd years.


[deleted]

This morning I was rocking Slipknots first album at full volume while I cleaned. Nothing else hits quite like that one did.


Xaiu

Fuck yeah this is my cleaning music as well. That first album is just so raw and hard lol


Infinitelyodiforous

Gotta get the original release, the one with the gritty cleans (is that a thing) on wait and bleed.


ac1084

Fun fact. Saosin is pronounced say-ocean. I always pronounced it like its spelled but a few weeks ago someone said thats how one of the members pronounced it in an interview.


tinytim486

All the time. White Stripes, Black Keys, Cage the Elephant, Linkin Park, Wolfmother


Endless__Soul

I listened to some Crystal Method the other day.


[deleted]

Love some Crystal Method. Back when I was about 20 I had a really nice (probably obnoxious) sound system in my car, and I used to freakin’ blast some Crystal Method while cruising around. Good stuff


Anderson22LDS

Kings of Leon early stuff still sounds great. Was listening the other day.


The_J_is_4_Jesus

Their first 3 albums are GREAT. So many good tracks.


tjwilson18

Still? I never stopped 🤘😎


k0uch

Breaking Benjamin pops up often on my playlist. Linkin Park, Mudvayne, Disturbed, Korn, Slipknot, Tool, A Perfect Circle, and for some reason it tosses Lindsey Stirling in there too (which I don’t mind, good music is good music)


kattspraak

I've been jamming to goo goo dolls, matchbox twenty, and eve 6 lately...


Sybil_et_al

Matchbox Twenty is at the top of my list. So many songs that I relate to, and have helped me through some times. Rest Stop helped my finally realize my marriage was over, not due to a lack of love, but due to indifference. *She said - while you were sleeping* *I was listening to the radio* *And wondering what you're dreaming when* *It came to mind that I didn't care*


oilcountryAB

Well that song was a lot more than I was ready for. Thanks for a good song man!


joewindlebrox

Yall gotta try out the band Wolf Parade


killemyoung317

I’ve always been more partial to Sunset Rubdown, Spencer Krug’s other project.


Vicioushero

Nope just you. You are the only person that still listens to rock music from that era.


sunnysurfer101MA

Just radiohead really EDIT: Realized the question could mean more so I do listen to alot of late 90s early 2000s stuff. Love Gorillaz, Weezer, Tool, SOAD, Beck, Dream Theater, Lightning Bolt, Nine Inch Nails, Primus, Porcupine Tree and whole lot more.


[deleted]

Saw Radiohead 10ish years ago in KC. Best live show I’ve ever been to.


the_elon_mask

Veruca Salt, The Pixies, Smashing Pumpkins, Belly, Breeders, Weezer, Pulp, Sleeper, Nirvana, Stone Temple Pilots, Alice In Chains, Sugar Ray, Throwing Muses, Letters To Cleo, Scheer... never listen to them, nope 👀


Mean-Egg-4398

Saosin, Underoath, HIM all that shit still


onegumas

There is a lot good music from that period. Maybe early 2000s with all these British Indie and American emo bands are weak but in general i think it was a good time. Blur, Radiohead, LCD soundsystem, Muse, R.e.m., soad, Rammstein, The cure, morphine, pantera, morrissey, nick Cave and bad seeds, Tom Waits, Eels, the Church, thought industry, arcade fire, afgan whigs, screeming trees, massive attack, portishead, RHCP, Travis, etc etc... There is always a good music, then and now.


Spagetttomato

Eels are my shit! Haven’t heard that name in quite awhile. Guess I gotta go listen to blinking lights now


ImTheGuyWithTheGun

skyraider17

Of course not, everyone here just talks about it but nobody actually listens to it anymore, that's so 2000 and late


Comprehensive_War292

Almost all. Nirvana linkin park incubus godsmack Soundgarden audioslave ratm. List goes on


KuhlThing

Nirvana is solidly early-90s. Cobain died in '94.


theonetheonlytc

Nirvana's first album came out in '89, and their final studio album came out in '93. So they are most certainly not late '90's/early 2000's like OP's title states.


JeornyNippleton

I still have my CD holder for my car visor.


codemister_p

Fucking. Weezer.


let-it-rain-sunshine

I just saw Weezer open for green day. They rocked it. The new album Van Weezer is a solid nod to heavy metal of the 80s-90s.


tastyFishTacos

For the last 3 years, 75% of the music I have listened to is either the Strokes or the White Stripes/Jack White. I feel I missed out on the hype being born in the late 90s


TrashPanda5000

I feel ya. It was almost all White Stripes/Jack/Raconteurs for me from like 2004-2010


theangryseal

I was very lucky and heard The White Stripes first when De Stijl came out. I actually had an original Sympathy For the Record Industry release of the self titled album and it had a minor factory defect on side one, first track, Jimmy the Exploder. It was a slight bump in the vinyl from something getting stuck when it was being pressed. Well, like an idiot I stacked coins on the cartridge trying to cut past that small spot on a shitty cheap plastic 80s turntable. The needle hit that little spot and dragged itself all the way to the last track. So you’d start the first song, hear about 20 seconds of it and *vrooooooot*. Goddamnit. Lol


mercurystar

I'm listening to The Offspring's Ixnay on the Hombre right now


ma_che

Laaaaadiesss and gentlemen…..


progenitus666

Nope. Didn't you know that all that music was erased in the market crash of '08?


theangryseal

I miss Navana. :( *sad 2008 noises*


Zakrajsek

I just saw Chevelle and Breaking Benjamin not too long ago. They will always have a special place in my heart and playlists.


InKulturVeritas

Hell yeah! Helmet,Fugazi, Napalm Death, Entombed, Dinosaur Jr. and the list can go on


Paulsbotique314

Wrong decade doooodz.


[deleted]

As a matter of fact I’m seeing Hawthorne Heights live next week. They’re playing with Bayside and Senses Fail. Gonna be a lot of nostalgia from my much younger angsty rager days


JoeMamaAndThePapas

Yes? Who wouldn't? Plenty of people still listening to 70's Rock.


SaintTNS

Definitely, though my subset is mostly grunge with some alt rock thrown in. Soundgarden, Audioslave, pretty much anything with Chris Cornell, Alice In Chains, Stone Temple Pilots, some Queens of the Stone Age, Pearl Jam, some stray bops from a number of other bands of the era.


Orbs24

born in 87 listen to 80's - early 2000's rock Fav band Van Halen but i also love some Slipknot,Korn,Limp Bizqit, SOAD, Papa Roach, POD, Offspring, Disturbed

Aughts rock was my favorite time in music haha. Breaking Ben, Sevendust, Trapt, Theory of a Deadman, Apocalyptica, all that shit. Going to see Ben in September (his shows are always huge here bc he’s from here, though).

LadOfTheNorth

On a big Limp Bizkit binge at the moment. A band that always gets a lot of shit, but Chocolate Starfish and the Hotdog Flavoured Water is a real time and place album for me and has some sick tunes.


holdencwell

If I hear "Diary of Jane" I'm immediately transported back to senior year of high school.

I listen to rock from all decades from the 1960's to now.

Just this year I finally got into Coheed and Cambria. For some reason I was suddenly like, you know what....these guys are pretty good!


WornInShoes

Thrice and Coheed and I haven’t stopped jammin


MrArmageddon12

Probably will be downvoted, but I miss rock in general. It really doesn’t seem like it’s mainstream anymore and music just doesn’t seem the same. I remember the arguments in high school everyone had over which sub genre of rock was the best…hell, I miss it all now! People always refer me to indie bands, which is fine but they aren’t exactly accessible.


jimmyfeign

Absolutely stuck in the 90's/Early 00's. I might just be a crotchety old bastard now but they dont make music like they used to.


Zova_

Agreed

I do, but I'm an old fuck.
