Pearl Jam's Ten came out in 1991 and not 1992 like i said twice in this video!! 😂
Core is an amazing album. One of my all time favs out of any genre
It's an excellent album. Sings and production are amazing. Cheers fella 👍
PEARL JAM ALWAYS GETS CRAP ON, THEY ARE MY FAVORITE BAND!! I LOVE EVERYTHING THEY STAND FOR. BEST LIVE BAND EVER AND STILL TOURING IN 2024. I ALSO LOVE ALICE IN CHAINS AND MAD SEASON AND TEMPLE OF THE DOG. PEARL JAM ALBUM TEN IS THE BEST! RIP KURT COBAIN AND LAYNE STALEY AND MIKE STAR AND CHRIS CORNELL AND MARK LANEGAN AND JOHN BAKER SAUNDERS.
I LOVE GRUNGE!!! THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS AWESOME VIDEO 😊 🩷 🤘 ✌️
Yeah, I've received some negative comments about Pearl Jam in the comments section of this video, I've never understood the hate personally. Alice In Chains are one of my favourite bands. So sad thatbso many of the Grunge heavy weights have passed away. No problem and glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for watching
@@mrboulder9714 YOUR TRULY WELCOME, SORRY ABOUT THE ALL CAPS MY EYE SITE IS NOT THE GREATEST SO I APOLOGIZE! KEEP ROCKIN IN THE FREE WORLD!! 😊🩷🤘✌️
Another excellent ranking video James! Enjoyed the vid.
Pearl Jam's 'Ten' would also be my top pick. "Porch" & "Deep" are really underrated songs. I never was the biggest fan of Nirvana's 'Bleach', I much prefer 'In Utero' (might be in the minority here). 😅
I'm not familiar with 'Ultramega OK' so I guess I need to check that one out soon! Cheers James 🤘😎
Ten is a beast of an album
I prefer In Utero too but Bleach is a great record in its own right
I'd never heard Ultramega OK until about 6 weeks ago either
Cheers Kenan as always mate
Did you just “I’m not like other girls” with Nirvana? Dude, saying that you don’t like Bleach and prefer In Utero is basic as Hell. It’s almost a cliché. We get it. Let me guess… you think “Creep” is overrated and much prefer Radiohead’s later work.
@@wellesradioDid I say that I didn't like "Bleach"? "In Utero" is just miles ahead compared to "Bleach" in my opinion. It's ok if you disagree with me... I can't force you to be right...
@@kenankustura8595 No, I agree, as far as Nirvana goes (I’m not a fan, but I don’t hate them). What I’m saying is that Bleach is almost universally considered their weakest album.
@@wellesradio Fair point. I agree, sometimes I also think that the album deserves more recognition. 👍
1. Pearl Jam - Ten
2. Alice In Chains - Facelift
3. Nirvana - Bleach
4. Temple Of The Dog - Temple Of The Dog
5. Mad Season - Above
6. STP - Core
7. Soundgarden - Ultramega OK
8. Mother Love Bone - Apple
9. Tad - Gods Balls
10. Melvins - Gluey Porch Treatments
My stab at a top-ten... loads left out. It's tough to list these as there's so many great bands and the quality is really high.
Thanks for sharing your list here. Quite a few of these bands I've never got round to checking out. Cheers
@mrboulder9714 if you do, I think you'll like some of them. Thanks for the videos, I really enjoy all of them. Cheers 🍻
@@CliveBarnesMusic Thanks for watching and commenting. It's much appreciated
Mother Love Bone were genius but not a grunge band
@theycantallbezodiac truth is, there's really no such thing as grunge. None of these bands share much in common musically. If you want to make the geographical argument, then STP is out.
Mother Love Bone is a transitional band, for sure. They're a natural bridge between 80s hard rock and 90s alternative rock.
Their members are as "grunge" as it gets. Stone Gossard and Jeff Ament forming Pearl Jam later. Bruce Fairweather joining Love Battery and all three forming MLB after Green River's demise. A band many consider to be the originators of "grunge."
The "not grunge" argument is so personal for so many that it has only proven there's absolutely no consensus on what is actually grunge.
Depending on your criteria, Mother Love Bone is either grunge or hard rock. Either way, they are genius 🤘
Agree with the ranking, Pearl Jam blew my mind when I first heard them. Can’t wait to see them again this summer in London. Now ranking Ten vs Nevermind vs Blood Sugar Sex Magik….that’s a tougher question…
Yeah Ten is just a perfect album. Still need to catch Pearl Jam live. I'm probably gonna end up doing a video at some point comparing those albums. Cheers fella 👍
I play " Bleach " way more than the other Nirvana albums. " Facelift " and " 10 " are also good, but not my
favourites from those respective bands.
Nice to see a whole video from you about grunge favourites. I like S.T.P as well, and just starting to listen to
Collective Soul as well again. Don't know why I never liked them at the time.
Cheers James.
Lots of good releases from the early days of the Alternative Rock era mate. Bleach is an album that flies under the radar I think. Cheers Keith
Hi James!! cool to see you doing this ranking and talking about the grunge debut albums and adding STP to the list, to me it's a great album and killer debut. It's an interesting thing to see how Soundgarden keeps getting better and better with every release and other band their best release is their debut and realizing that 4 of the 5 lead singers passed away!!! cheers and be well
Agreed Cristian, STP's Core is a killer album and i agree that Soundgarden were a band that improved with every release. Cheers as always mate 👍
Cool grunge debut album ranking, James! Good to see Alice in Chains, Soundgarden and Pearl Jam. I always thought Alice in Chains are a metal band with some slight grunge influences.
It does make me wonder if Alice In Chains would have picked up the Grunge tag if they weren't from Seattle. Cheers Tony
...started out as a glam band
STP are pure class. EVERY album is excellent.
Soundgarden is a close second 👍
Both excellent bands with amazing discographies. Thanks for watching
I really enjoyed this video and you honestly should do a part 2
Cheers for the kind words and thanks for watching and commenting.
I haven’t watched just yet. But someone tell me. Silverchair is on here. That frog stomp is a MUST
Silverchair is not here as this is more about the first wave of Grunge
Cool video. I don't think I've ever heard that Soundgarden album. Never really got into STP I must admit. "Man In The Box" is a good song. 'Bleach' is a great, overlooked sludgy album IMO.
I wasn't even aware of that Soundgarden album until I started doing research for the video, I thought Louder Than Love was their debut. Bleach us definitely an overlooked album. Cheers mate 👍
Great ranking ole boy. Almost no one talks about grunge that much. All killer bands that I loved while growing up. That being said I tend to favour Soundgarden and AIC more so in my later years. Cheers James
Thanks Trevor. Agreed mate, a genre that gifted us some truly amazing vocalists and bands. Soundgarden and Alice In Chains are both fantastic and I still listen to both in regular rotation now. Cheers as always mate 👍
I would completely agree with this ranking, if 'Bleach' was shoved to the back. Every other record on this list is better than that, in my opinion. 'Ten' had to be number one, even though I prefer Alice In Chains as a band. Great stuff as always.
Yeah Alice In Chains are my favourite from these bands, but Ten is just an outstanding album. Cheers as always James, much appreciated fella
Soundgarden and Alice In Chains are the only grunge bands that I still listen to. Cheers mate
Both amazing bands. Cheers Mark as always mate 👍
same ranking for me,though vs is my favorite PJ album...nice Judas Priest vinyl in the background...I adore this album...so good....
Ten and VS are both amazing albums. Yeah that latest Priest record is a beast. Cheers for watching
Have to agree with that order as well. Dont care what anyone says about PJ they get a lot of shit until the naysayers go and listen to that unplugged version of Black and then 'get it'...grunge over nu-metal anyday for me. Cheers James.
Yeah Pearl Jam get a lot of unnecessary shit. But your right, that Unplugged version of 'Black' is absolutely phenomenal stuff. Cheers fella and thanks for watching. Much appreciated
Good ranking out of curiosity where would you put the Temple of the Dog album. 🤘
Wow it completely slipped my mind to include that in this video. I'd probably slot that in 2nd or 3rd place. Cheers fella 👍
Stone temple toilets? I prefer the modern day conveniences with a warm plastic seat. Nice to see Mudhoney & Babes In Toyland get a mention in the comments. Rockin' stuff, Mr B!
Haha 😂 Cheers for watching fella 👍
I'll be honest i didn't listen to grunge much when it 1st came out i started checking out those bands in the late 90s i probably listen to bleach and face-lift the most out the albums you showed it's just sad that 4 out the 5 singers are no longer with us all went way too young
Agreed Robert. It's very sad that only Eddie Vedder is left from all these amazing vocalists. Cheers fella 👍
AIC has always been a metal band. Soundgarden is like a mix of Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath. Great stuff!
I do wonder if Alice In Chains weren't from Seattle then would they have ever picked up the Grunge tag? Maybe not! Cheers for watching fella. Much appreciated
I think the first two pearl jam albums are their best, i couldn't get into any of their other albums after that.
The first 2 are my favourites. Some of their stuff after that was patchy. 1998's Yield is very good. Cheers fella 👍
Pearl jam 10 love that album. That's the only album that I have by them. Nirvana bleach album still there best for me. Negative creep was covered by Fear factory and also Machine head. Soundgarden Bad motor finger is there best. May I ask you something. Does it cost you anything to do your video's ? As I was thinking about doing the same myself, but Am not to sure how to go about it.
Yeah, Ten is amazing. I didn't know Fear Factory and Machine Head had both covered Negative Creep. As far as making videos goes, the only thing you really need to buy is a tripod for your recording device for when you are filming. Hope that helps fella
I rank em a bit differently..
1. Stone Temple Pilots - Core
2. Alice in Chains - Facelift
3. Pearl Jam - Ten
4. Soundgarden - Ultra Mega OK
5. Nirvana - Bleach
Thanks for sharing your ranking fella, good ranking too. Cheers
My list
Bleach and Ultra Mega OK joint first
Facelift
Core (not the biggest STP fan, but I don't mind them)
I don't like Pearl Jam . They can "Get in the bin" as you would say.
Enjoyed the vid
Cheers for sharing your thoughts on these albums. For me STP wnt on to make better albums. Bleach is a killer record. Thanks for watching fella 👍
The new Judas Priest album is fantastic! You should pick it up for the collection!
It's in the background of the video fella. Cheers
@@mrboulder9714 Duhhh, my apologies.
@blakebacarella9445 Haha 😄 Thanks for watching fella
what about Red Hot chill peppers , ? they should go with these guys?
I have that Alice in Chains on cd!!!
you like 10 better than Face lift I understand everybody hears music differently but even you said Cantrell has amazing guitar playing I would take Facelift over 10 . it's your choice
Chilli Peppers are a different style so I was never going to include them in this video. Musically I find Alice In Chains more interesting but i find Pearl Jam's 10 to just be a perfect album. Facelift is good, but for me AIC went on to make better albums. Thanks for watching and commenting
To me Mudhoney,s first album is better than all of the album's on your list. Although Bleach is close and they are still releasing great stuff to this day
I still need to check out Mudhoney as I never got round to it. Thanks for watching
I think I'd rank these the same as you actually but I don't care for the Soundgarden album tbh.
If you don't know these albums they are good and well worth giving a try....
Live - Throwing Copper
Mudhoney - SuperFuzz Bigmuff
Mudhoney - Mudhoney
Gruntruck - Push
Mindfunk - Dropped
Mother Love Bone - Apple
Babes in Toyland - Fontanelle
All good those if you're in the grunge mood mate.
Fuck I completely forgot about that Live album, it's an absolute monster of an album and I should have included it. Lots of bands names I've heard but never got round to checking out. Thanks for the recommendations mate
@@mrboulder9714 The Live album might even have topped this list for me
@@metalmickey It could easily make 2nd place for me mate
'Throwing Copper' is an awesome album, it's not Live's debut though- 'Mental Jewelry' is
@@dog9124 yeah I know but I was just telling him good albums. Gruntruck isn't the debut either
what?! no Mudhoney? wtf??? I have to Laugh!
I never got round to checking them out, so the video features the bands I'm familiar with.
@@mrboulder9714how can you review a genre you know nothing about?
Agree.
@theycantallbezodiac know nothing about? 😂😂😂 I've been listening to these bands for 30 years. Plus I clearly say at the start of the video I'm taking a look at the albums by the bands considered to be the 'Big 4' Grunge, I included STP because I'm a fan and wanted to include them as well!
@@mrboulder9714 and yet you state in another thread about how you are not familiar with a lot of grunge bands 🙄
4 of the 5 lead singers are dead
Yep, very sad that some of these amazing vocalists have passed away already
Sorry mate, if you ARE a big fan of STP as you claim, then you'd know they're not and never were grunge.
STP have been associated with the Grunge scene since day 1
Na mate they've always been in the grunge pantheon
Also don’t really count Pearl Jam as grunge. They flat out suck and sound nothing of the grunge scene. More like alternative like bush
Pearl Jam are great, but they do sound more like an Arena Rock band than necessarily Grunge. Thanks for watching
Pearl Jam sucks and is awful political garbage. Which I don’t like mixed with my music. Also, Facelift was def more of a metal release than it was grunge. Really there’s not one grunge song on the whole album. That’s why they were included on the Clash of Titans tour!
There's definitely a Metal side to Alice In Chains but they are labas Grunge so their In the video. Pearl Jam has never sucked and music is music, I pay no attention to any political connections to any music
@@mrboulder9714 politics and music don’t mix to me, so music isn’t always music. But agree to disagree!
