A lot of great bands here. Every music fan should have Ned's Atomic Dustbin's God Fodder in their collection. They were also a killer live band. Saw them at an WHFS festival and they completely stole the show even with Iggy Pop on the bill.

Some others I really love
Screaming Trees
Mudhoney
Archers Of Loaf
Candy Skins
Supersuckers
Rev. Horton Heat
Tad
Spinanes
Melvins
Jawbox

I like this one a lot. My fav of the 90s for non metal would be Mr. Reality!

Good call. Although I associate REM more with the 80's.

True but they were big in the 90s, Nirvana was also from the late 80s

Live. I never stop listening to 'Throwing Copper'. The debut and
'Secret Samadhi' have some strong songs as well. After that it was
like...2 per album, and then...nothing.

I also enjoy the first
two Jars of Clay a lot. Adrien Belew (Talking Heads, King Crimson) did
some production work on their debut that worked superbly with their
sound.

Yeah, I like Jars of Clay too.

Also, like Alanis Morissette, Goo Goo Dolls and Gin Blossoms.

All good calls.

Sloan was definately an under-appreciated band. Good stuff and very unique.

Too bad the 'Dingers got overshadowed for so long and forced Uncle Saxon to go solo.... His new band, Vainy Titz, is MASSIVE right now [in some villages around Lake Geneva].
