Collective Soul may have been void on lyrics but s/t and Discipline Breakdown had some fun songs.
Category is: defending bad 90s bands I’m the bar.
A friend of mine in Atlanta lives down the block from the singer. I don’t like that yeah song. Thinking about it reminds me offspring have far too many oh’s and whoa’a in their songs. I don’t hate them, but it’s annoying.

I'll go to bat for "The World I Know."
I know I'm a total sap, but the video gets me every time.
Do you want to dance while also thinking about all the ways you've failed as a human?

Has anyone brought up how we should define indie vs. alternative yet
No but I thought about it. Got a feeling indie is just gonna lay claim to anything recent that is good that would have been called alternative in the 90s.

i think shuck disagreed with my years but alternative was like 86-00 and everything after that is indie. alternative is the pixies, indie is the national, vampire weekend, and LCD soundsystem. i mean the spirit of that is pretty accurate i think.

In my mind, Radiohead is indie but RHCP is alternative.
Where does REM fall...other than "on me?"
They were kind of the first/biggest band in the '80s to really break out on an indie label. Of course, they didn't stay on indie labels, either...
College rock initially. And Red Hot Chili Peppers were on alternative radio, particularly Blood Sugar. But that’s one of three albums they actually did in the 1990’s. They were adjacent to L.A. hardcore but more Meters and funk influenced. Four albums (4 of the best ones) in the 1980’s.
Remember the Futurama where Bender gets pissed after someone plays the Spin Doctors?
"That's not alternative rock, it's college rock!"
College rock was an alternative before alternative. That’s REM, 10,000 Maniacs, Zeitgeist, Fleshtones, Pixies, later Husker Du, Midnight Oil They Might Be Giants, Femmes, etc. newer shit that the rock stations didn’t play mostly.
