10 Perfect Albums That Will Make You Love Grunge Music

So when talking about some of the greatest grunge albums that have ever been made, how the hell does a movie soundtrack qualify for a list like this? The grunge community was always about being against major corporations, so this should have been the reason why the Seattle sound was selling out, just taking a few tunes together to make a quick buck. It might seem like selling out, but Cameron Crowe had his finger on the pulse of what was happening when cutting his rom com Singles.

Being right in the middle of the Seattle scene when making the film, what turns up on here is some of the best grunge bands in the world coming together for a project. Combing through each layer of this album, you're basically getting a history lesson in what grunge was supposed to be, from heavyhitters like Alice in Chains and Pearl Jam showing up on here to bringing in guys that helped kickstart the grunge scene like Paul Westerberg of the Replacements.

There are even a few tracks on here that are more of an indicator of just how far reaching the sounds of grunge go, from bringing in different Seattle musicians from the classic rock sphere like Jimi Hendrix and Heart to letting grunge adjacent bands like the Screaming Trees and Smashing Pumpkins contribute a tune as well. If only we had a Nirvana track to fill out the track listing here, this would be anyone's one stop shop for the best that to come out of the alternative movement.
