Weekend Wind-Down No. 13: We (Still) Love The 90s

–Words and list by Kevin Madert

Did I not tell you we’d be taking more trips to the 90s in the near future? Admittedly many of us are better versed in the plaid-clad one-hit wonders than the more emotive and relaxed numbers, but I’d be surprised if you didn’t recognize at least a few of the songs included on this list. We start off with one of the best B-sides ever released in “Yellow Ledbetter” (your status as a great band is cemented when your outtake tracks outshine the entire catalogs of other groups) and hit a myriad of genre stops along the way. Enjoy, and we’ll surely meet you in the past again soon.

Pearl Jam – Yellow Ledbetter
Radiohead – Creep
Verve Pipe – The Freshmen
