Top 5 ’90’s Bands That Should Be In The Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame
Good morning, Rat Rock Nation! We just wrapped up ’90’s Rock Madness where asked Rat Rock Nation to decide who the greatest band of the 1990’s…congratulations to Foo Fighters! Dave Grohl and company were voted #1 by you! And since the Foo’s have already been inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame…we’re ranking the Top 5 bands who have yet to make it into the Hall! And the list starts…right now!
5.) Oasis
The feuding British band can be polarizing at times…but they’ve had a massive career with million-unit selling and chart-making singles. Put ’em in!

4.) Smashing Pumpkins
How is Billy Corgan’s fantastic group NOT in? Between Siamese Dream and Melon Collie and the Infinite Sadness alone, the Pumpkins deserve this recognition!

3.) Stone Temple Pilots
Come on, man! STP cranked out hit-after-hit, had one of the most enigmatic lead singers of the decade and a killer guitar-and-bass combination with the DeLeo brothers. Get ’em in there!

2.) Alice In Chains
Alice In Chains were one of the Big Seattle 4 (along with Nirvana, Pearl Jam, and Soundgarden) and had one of the most amazing unique sounds out there. Award them this honor!

1.) Soundgarden
What the heck is happening when Soundgarden STILL has not made the R&R Hall? Ridiculous! Chris Cornell’s incredible band brought some of the heaviest guitars and best vocals of the era. PUT THEM IN!
