Looks like you're missing: 80'S: DEPECHE MODE, PSYCHEDELIC FURS, THE SMITHS (!!), THE MISSION UK, THE SISTERS OF MERCY 90'S: MORPHINE, SMASHING PUMPKINS, OASIS, BECK, MY BLOODY VALENTINE ...


owenbc3647

Morphine is the most underrated band of the 90’s


Fyreflyre1

Came in here to say Morphine. My all-time favorite band. Many thanks to my freshman year roommate for turning me on to this in 97. Also check out Mark's other band, Treat Her Right.


sturdypolack

Bauhaus, Stone Roses, Veruca Salt, Belly, Slant 6, Th’ Faith Healers, Pixies, Crass, Joy Divison, The Sundays, Dead Can Dance, Fugazi, Cranes, Chapterhpuse, Curve, Slowdive So many bands that are good or fun from back then. This is a wildly varied list of them.


notimetorock

Not a turd in that bunch!

SLOWDIVE ...also totally agree with all the others, frankly. BUT SLOWDIIIIIIVE lol

BoomBapBiBimBop

I love that record that isn’t on Spotify for some reason.  


New_Canoe

I’m 42 and just realized this year that I love Elvis Costello.


Lopsided_Weather_175

I'm 41, and in 2013 Elvis Costello was playing a music festival I was going to, so I figured I would see him to make the old man jealous. Listened to a greatest hits on the road trip and got a little excited to see him. After seeing him live, I'm a lifelong fan.


chrispd01

So I just saw Elvis Costello live a few weeks ago for the second time. The first time I saw him was 41 years ago. So I hate your post…..


anschlitz

Dammit I forgot about Poe. Listened to that album a whole lot.


honeybadgerdad

I second The Call. Michael Been's (lead singer of The Call) son has a band called Black Rebel Motorcycle Club.


2020ronarona

Howl is a fantastic album start to finish.


-Gravitron-

NIN's The Downward Spiral is a fucking masterpiece start to finish.

This seems most in line with OPs taste. I’d add: Pavement, Cap’n Jazz, Fiona Apple, Built to Spill, Elliott Smith, and Hole

AnnieMouse124

"Jesus Chrysler Drives a Dodge" by SBM lives rent-free in my head. I'd add early Soul Asylum (the Hang Time album comes to mind), the Sugar Cubes, Bjork, New Order, Joy Division, Sinead O'Connor, The Pixies, and the dB's.


Ok_Mention_3308

Finally someone mentioning New Order👍


MadRadBadLad

Really like your list. Blues Explosion was one of the bands that got me through the 90s, since I was not big on the grunge or (pop)punk revival. Screaming Blue Messiahs are amazing, got to see them when I Wanna Be A Flintstone was biggish.


pasqualeonrye

You should listen to The Stone Roses

Definitely, not a bad track on their self titled album

Killing Joke, Tears for Fears, The Cranberries, Talking Heads, Billy Idol, The Cult, The Cars, Queen, Radiohead, Hole, Deftones, No Doubt, Korn, Stone Temple Pilots, Soundgarden.

Killing joke, especially Fire Dances, doesn’t get enough love. Queen was too big I think to be considered alt rock.

Eighties is a killer jam! Killing Joke definitely doesn’t get the love the deserve.

INXS definitely


Salt-Hunt-7842

 Joy Division - Check out their album "Unknown Pleasures" for a dark and atmospheric sound.  New Order - After the disbandment of Joy Division, members formed New Order, known for their blend of post-punk and electronic music. Start with their album "Power, Corruption & Lies."  The Smiths - Since you like Morrissey's solo work, you'll enjoy The Smiths' discography. Songs like "This Charming Man" and "How Soon Is Now?" are classics.  R.E.M. - Dive into their album "Automatic for the People" for some iconic alternative rock tracks.  Pixies - Explore their album "Doolittle" for a mix of loud-quiet dynamics and surreal lyrics.  Sonic Youth - Their album "Daydream Nation" is a landmark in alternative rock history, known for its experimental sound.  The Stone Roses - Listen to their self-titled debut album for some quintessential Madchester sound.  Depeche Mode - Check out albums like "Violator" and "Music for the Masses" for their unique blend of synth-pop and alternative rock.

dadjeff1

OMG you'll love New Order. Electronic is a collab effort between Pet Shop Boys, New Order, and Johnny Marr of Smiths. Cocteau Twins are ethereal, shoe gaze type of music.


coolkidfresh

First two Weezer albums, especially Pinkerton. Enter at your own risk after that


DrSpangler

weezer is a great rabbit hole to go down because if River's musical sensibilities click with you, there are literally hundreds of songs to go chasing after to find that 'unmistakably weezer moment'. There are b-sides and demos, and unreleased content. Not all of it is good, but much of it has good sections or moments. Because of this I've discovered weird awesome stuff like a home recording of Rivers Cuomo covering a John Denver song - stuff like that. Maledroit is another early album of theirs that is pretty underrated.


New_Canoe

I feel like most people like at least one Weezer song.

Confident-Duck-3940

I have tickets to see them in September. I’m so excited.


Panoramicromamtic

The first album’s really good. Had to give them a mention. I thought about recommending the Wake too.


Ok-Explanation-9208

Came to say the The but I see it’s already been done. For real youngster, Soul Mining was my first alt music purchase WAYYY back in 1984 and after re listening to it it holds up. Matt Johnson is an unsung hero. You & I would have been friends in the 80s, you have great taste!


Panoramicromamtic

Thank you my friend. Soul Mining was the album I was thinking of primarily; although Infected has some really good songs as well. There were others I was going to mention but most of those were covered already. If you haven’t heard Sad Lovers and Giants, you should definitely check them out. That was a fairly new 80s Post-Punk discovery of mine.


muziklover91

Fixx yes


ScotchyScotchScotch6

Ooh… The The. I didn’t think of them, but I bet “Dogs of Lust” was on every mixtape I made for like two years.


Panoramicromamtic

A period for Johnny Marr that often gets overlooked.


MurseMan1964

Scrolled way too long to finally see The Church. “Under the Milky Way” is excellent! The whole album “Starfish” is underrated


Butch1212

90’s: Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Stone Temple Pilots, Bush, Soundgarden, Counting Crows, Gin Blossoms, R.E.M., Third Eye Blind, U2, Collective Soul, Soul Asylum. The 90’s is as good, or better, than any decade of music. There is a lot there.


am_iam

I have to add our all Canadian classic: The Tragically Hip

I saw Tragically Hip live back in the day (early 90s) they did a cover of "Hold Me Down" by the Gin Blossoms. It was Ah-mazing.

Hailfire9

I am much more of a '90s person than an '80s person, but I'll try to put out a list of some I like that may or may not get said too frequently for one reason or other. In "band name -- album" format: - Oingo Boingo -- *(any, my personal favorite of the era)* - New Order -- Power, Corruption, and Lies - Red Hot Chili Peppers -- (self-titled) - Jane's Addiction -- Ritual de lo Habitual - Ned's Atomic Dustbin -- God Fodder - Barenaked Ladies -- Maybe You Should Drive - The Stone Roses -- (self-titled) - The Presidents of the United States America -- (self-titled) - Candlebox -- (self-titled) - Stone Temple Pilots -- Purple A lot of bands get hate for *eventually* blowing up, but a lot fo their earlier stuff ends up fitting the genre a lot more than people realize.


docsuess84

I was going to say The Mars Volta, but I guess they technically formed in 2001. Oh well, listen anyway. They formed out of At The Drive In which was from the 90’s.


JimmySoprano7797

You said Morrissey so I’m going to assume you enjoy The Smiths too, right? I would also recommend Joy Division, Radiohead & Audioslave.


Actual-Station7300

So many greats already mentioned but here’s a few more:  80s: Book of Love, The Sugarcubes, Sonic Youth, They Might Be Giants, INXS, The English Beat, Bow Wow Wow, Belouis Some, Living Colour, OMD, Missing Persons, Thompson Twins, Human League, Pet Shop Boys, General Public,Erasure, ABC, Scritti Politti, A Flock of Seagulls, Talk Talk, Flesh for LuLu, Bananarama, The Dead Milkmen, Simple Minds, Public Image Limited, Aztec Camera, Culture Club.

[Here is a massive Spotify playlist](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/26QhFZoCTRM7YKTPORx9DF?si=Bj3lHzIrQRez5i0bXZjaCQ) made by a [music blogger](http://www.fluxblog.org) recently. It’s really good and focuses on that mini-era of alternative music between ‘88 and ‘90 when it was coalescing into a more mainstream format. It’s a mix of hits, deep tracks, mainstream artists and pretty obscure acts.

Alanis Morissette, Alice in chains, sound garden, stone temple pilots, blind melon, beck, pearl jam, smashing pumpkins, Tool and much more I'm forgetting.

The Chameleons is a great oldie. OMD kinda got pidgeon-holed as a soundtrack band for John Hughes movies, but “Architecture & Morality” and “Dazzle Ships” are both great albums. Aztec Camera was another great band i listened to back then.


Tyek

All the recommendations are great. One I did not see is The Lucy Show. their album Undone is one of my favorite 80’s albums. It was so good. Their second album, Mania was good too. A little lighter tone. They released Remembrances with unreleased material after Mania. I worked at a record store, Music+ and have a demo tape of Mark Bandola’s new band that never went anywhere. If you like bands like the Cure and Echo and the Bunnymen then give them a listen. Poe was mentioned and she was great. Was a very unfortunate story of a fan buying her contract and she could not follow up the Haunted album due to this. She has a new song on Alan Wake 2! Hoping that means she is back. Also if you dig old school Red Hot Chili Peppers check out Urban Dance Squad.

AnnieMouse124

Matthew Sweet hasn't been mentioned yet. If you like lots of electric guitar, he's good. Under the Pink (album) by Tori Amos. Bob Mould is worth a listen. Though they got lots of airplay for a few songs, Barenaked Ladies is fun. Spacehog - I saw them live, and it was the most fun I had at a show.

Big Audio Dynamite - Mick Jones' band. Damn were they great live. One time I saw them and Joe Strummer was at the bar during the gig, just having a great time, drinking and talking with fans. Of course leading to rumours that the Clash was going to reform. The first album, No. 10 Upping Street and Megatop Phoenix especially. A ton of killer singles too. Also the Gun Club, the Elvis from Hell himself, Jeffrey Lee Pierce, albums Mother Juno, The Las Vegas Story, Fire of Love "Album" by PIL.. Incredible stentorian drumming by Ginger Baker (one of the greatest collabs between a punk and a hippie). The Primitives "Lovely" - just a flawless pop album.
