I left them off my list b/c I thought they belong in a more hard rock genre and they really didn't do a whole lot in the 90's. They had I think 2 albums..maybe 3 but after 2000 they made some really great stuff. But yeah anyone who thinks Tool is not the greatest thing out has bad taste in music.

Nirvana and RHCP are kinda kiddy choices next to the others. Both of them are the results of MTV brainwashing rather than music rated as a stand-alone thing IMO. Soundgarden can be a little bland and monotous, good band though. AIC are very good, the best Seattle band. Jane's Addiction and Smashing Pumpkins should walk into this list they're far better than the others apart from Radiohead and Tool. RHCP aren’t all that, neither are Nirvana, PJ and STP.

Jane’s Addiction and Smashing Pumpkins should walk into this list they’re far better than the others apart from Radiohead and Tool.

Tool are the most 'alternative' thing on the list! Sounds like you're confusing them with AC/DC or something. The word 'alternative' has been twisted over the years anyway, many people have their own subjective view of what it means. Tool simply hard rock?? Tool are the most ‘alternative’ thing on the list!

Tool is simply hard rock. NIN is industrial rock and RHCP is more funk/punk rock(in the 90's). Band's that were left off that need to be on are: Jane's Addiction, Mudhoney and maybe someone like Smashing Pumpkins (90's albums). Anyone who says linkin park or korn or any of those Nu-metal bands need to do research on music genres. Tool, NIN, RHCP need not be in this list. Tool is simply hard rock.
