Black Rebel Motorcycle Club Black Rebel Motorcycle Club
Genre: Rock/Pop
Decades Active: 90s, 00s

The seed that became Black Rebel Motorcycle Club -- or B.R.M.C for short -- was planted back in 1995, when Robert Turner and Peter Hayes met while attending high school in their hometown of San Francisco. They formed a solid friendship and camaraderie based on a mutual love of U.K. early-'90s bands like Ride and the Stone Roses and a few on the... [+] Read More

Guided by Voices Guided by Voices
Genre: Rock/Pop
Decades Active: 80s, 90s, 00s

Inspired equally by jangle pop and arty post-punk, Guided by Voices created a series of trebly, hissy indie rock records filled with infectiously brief pop songs that fell somewhere between the British Invasion and prog rock. After recording six self-released albums between 1986 and 1992, the Dayton, OH-based band attracted a handful of fans... [+] Read More

Lilys Lilys
Genre: Rock/Pop
Decades Active: 90s, 00s

The geographically and stylistically nomadic indie rock band Lilys was the vehicle of singer/songwriter Kurt Heasley, the group's founder and sole constant member. A Philadelphia native, Heasley and Lilys bowed with the 1991 single "February 14," a nod to My Bloody Valentine; while based in Washington, D.C., they recorded their 1992 debut LP, In...

Mercury Rev Mercury Rev
Genre: Rock/Pop
Decades Active: 90s, 00s

Not so much a band as a long, strange trip, the chaotic avant pop pranksters Mercury Rev formed in Buffalo, NY, in the late '80s. Originally comprised of vocalist David Baker, vocalist/silver pickup guitarist Jonathan Donahue, guitar shaper/single-exhaust clarinetist Grasshopper (born Sean Mackowiak), rooster-tail bass flutist Suzanne Thorpe,...

Red Red Meat Red Red Meat
Genre: Rock/Pop
Decades Active: 90s

Shuffled from the deck of the Chicago folk-punk outfit Friends of Betty in 1990, the modern blues balladeers of Red Red Meat would provide a stunning counterpoint to the windy city's popular Material Issue/Urge Overkill glam-informed swagger. Tim Rutili (vocals, guitars) and Glynis Johnson (bass, vocals), both of founding members of Friends of... [+] Read More

Royal Trux Royal Trux
Genre: Rock/Pop
Decades Active: 80s, 90s, 00s

From the noisy demise of underground kingpins Pussy Galore came two interesting bands. The first was Jon Spencer's blues deconstruction unit, the Jon Spencer Blues Explosion; the second was Neil Hagerty and Jennifer Herrema's dissonant junkie nightmare known as Royal Trux. Interestingly, both bands started out as avant-noise combos playing... [+] Read More

Spiritualized Spiritualized
Genre: Rock/Pop
Decades Active: 90s, 00s

Formed from the ashes of the trance-rockers Spacemen 3, singer/guitarist Jason Pierce's group Spiritualized did not break away from his prior band's trademark hypnotic minimalism; instead, they perfected it. Drawing on the continued influence of the Velvet Underground, La Monte Young, and Steve Reich, Spiritualized staked out a common ground... [+] Read More

Summer Hits Summer Hits
Genre: Rock/Pop
Decades Active: 90s

Formed in Sierra Madre, California in the early 1990s, the Summer Hits comprised vocalist/bassist Tartarex (born Rex Thompson), guitarist Daddy D.

Surtsey Surtsey
Genre: Alternative/Indie

An exciting new rock group.

The Dandy Warhols The Dandy Warhols
Genre: Rock/Pop
Decades Active: 90s, 00s

Often compared to the druggy psychedelic pop of the Velvet Underground, the Dandy Warhols do possess more than just a passing resemblance to Lou Reed and company at times, but elements of such modern rockers as Love and Rockets and Ride can be detected in their sound as well. Formed in Portland, OR, during 1994, the Dandy Warhols consist of... [+] Read More

The Verve The Verve
Genre: Rock/Pop
Decades Active: 90s

Long acclaimed as among the most innovative and spellbinding bands on the contemporary British pop scene, the Verve finally broke through to a mass international audience in 1997 with the instant classic "Bittersweet Symphony." By no stretch a study in overnight success, the group's rise was instead the culmination of a long, arduous journey... [+] Read More

The Warlocks The Warlocks
Genre: Rock/Pop
Decades Active: 90s, 00s

Indeed, it's been a long strange trip for Warlocks leader Bobby Hecksher since his band played their first gig on July 4th, 1998. Hecksher, who moved to California from Florida in the late '80s, formed his first group shortly after arriving. Charles Brown Superstar issued two singles and two full-length albums before calling it a day. Hecksher... [+] Read More

Yo La Tengo Yo La Tengo
Genre: Rock/Pop
Decades Active: 80s, 90s, 00s

Yo La Tengo was in many respects the quintessential critics' band: in addition to its adventurous eclecticism, defiant independence, and restless creative ambition -- three qualities that virtually guarantee music press acclaim -- the group's frontman, Ira Kaplan, even tenured as a rock scribe prior to finding success as a performer. So... [+] Read More
