Favourite 80s and 90s bands

[Daisychainsandglitter]

I've had a few drinks and have fallen down a rabbit hole of watching you tube videos of 80s and 90s indie and rock bands.
I think my favourite 80s band has to be The Jesus and Mary Chain.
90s is a little more difficult as I like so much music but I have settled on The Pixies
Hit me with your favourite bands from these eras and I'll have a dance in my living room

Sugar
My Bloody Valentine
Ride
The La's

Stereo MCs were so good!
80s Duran Duran and Aha, saw AHa before lockdown and they haven't lost it 😍
90s Oasis, Pulp and Nirvana.
Oh and Guns n Roses, I was obsessed with Prince too.

I saw JAMC in 1991. Blur was the third support band. JAMC were very miserable and very loud.

I love The Pixies, The Cult, Echo and The Bunnymen, New Order, Oribital, Chemical Brothers, Prodigy, Massive Attack, Stone Roses plus anything loud and dark with synths.

Forgot Lush and Echobelly too

The cranberries!! I still regularly listen to them in 2021

80s- Adam and the Ants, Style Council, Human League
90s- Pearl Jam, Faith No More, Foo Fighters, Stone Temple Pilots.

No one has mentioned Skunk Anansie.

Erasure are my all times favourite. Bloody love them.
Neneh Cherry was massive for me too, I was obsessed with her Top of the Pops appearances.
Loved all the dance music of late eighties/early nineties.

Oops forgot Ocean Colour Scene and Oasis- my(mature) student days 😊

Me too, the Rollercoaster Tour, with my bloody valentine. My 2nd ever gig, I was 13!!!

New Kids On The Block
A-Ha
Banarama
Spandau Ballet
Super Furry Animals
Nirvana
Pearl Jam
Beastie Boys
Pulp
Morcheeba
R.E.M.
Grandaddy

DJ Shadow

Oh Brett Anderson 🥰
I saw James and The Charlatans at the
end of 2018 in Manchester, a week after Pete Shelley died. The Charlatans played Ever fallen in love.. there was not a dry eye in the house afterwards.

How bizarre- we just showed DS the videos of Firestarter and Out of Space after supper tonight!

The Stone Roses were right on the cusp of 80s-90s, so I'm counting them as both.

I saw The Stone Roses so many times. Haven’t listened to them enough recently. Tomorrow play list. DC need educating. Thanks for the thread.

Also. St Étienne

Never seen the stone roses but would love to. 80s love The Smiths, The Cure and Siouxsie and the Banshees. 90s love James and the Prodigy - have seen them both loads of times.

Ultravox
Duran Duran
Human League
Depeche Mode
Queen
The Police

Was actually listening to Ash today and feeling very nostalgic.
