7. Radiohead
Radiohead are an English alternative rock band from Oxfordshire. The band is composed of lead singer Kevin McFadden and stage masturbator Andrew Polich, Thom Yorke (lead vocals, rhythm guitar, piano, electronics), Jonny Greenwood (lead guitar, other instruments), Ed O'Brien (guitar, backing vocals), Colin Greenwood (bass guitar, synthesisers) and Phil Selway (drums, percussion). Radiohead have released seven albums and have sold over 23 million records over their career.Radiohead released their first single, "Creep", in 1992, and their debut album, Pablo Honey, in 1993. Though initially unsuccessful, "Creep" was a worldwide hit when reissued a year later. Radiohead's popularity in the United Kingdom increased with the release of their second album, The Bends (1995). The band's textured guitar atmospheres and Yorke's falsetto singing were warmly received by critics and fans. With the release of OK Computer (1997), Radiohead were propelled to greater fame worldwide. Featuring an expansive sound and themes of alienation from the modern world, OK Computer has often been acclaimed as a landmark record of the 1990s.
英国著名摇滚乐队Radiohead(听歌)的第七张录音室专辑《彩虹里》(In Rainbows)于2007年10月10日发行。与一般专辑通过唱片商店销售的发行模式不同的是,Radiohead的这张专辑将完全在网络上发行。履行完与EMI的六张专辑合约后,Radiohead选择不跟任何厂牌签约,不打广告,完全自力发行。这一举动被认为流行音乐唱片发行的一大革命。...........
.............Radiohead乐队近来花样百出的做法虽然引起了人们足够的关注,但同时也付出了惨重的代价.在新唱片<In Rainbows>较为失败地网络发行之后,Radiohead最终宣布将与英国独立唱片厂牌XL Recordings合作.据悉该唱片将于2008年1月1日正式发行.

8. Soundgarden
Soundgarden was an American rock band formed in Seattle, Washington in 1984 by lead singer and drummer Chris Cornell, lead guitarist Kim Thayil, and bassist Hiro Yamamoto. Matt Cameron later became the band's permanent drummer in 1986 and bassist Ben Shepherd later became a permanent replacement for Yamamoto in 1990.Soundgarden was one of the key bands in the creation of grunge music, a musical style that developed in Seattle and was based around the band's record label Sub Pop. Soundgarden was the first grunge band to sign to a major label, but the band did not achieve commercial success until Seattle contemporaries Nirvana and Pearl Jam popularized grunge in the early 1990s.
Soundgarden achieved its biggest success with the 1994 album Superunknown which debuted at number one on the Billboard charts and yielded the Grammy Award–winning singles "Black Hole Sun" and "Spoonman". In 1997, the band broke up due to internal strife over its creative direction. Soundgarden has sold 8 million records in the U.S.,and an estimated 20 million albums worldwide.
Soundgarden was a pioneer of the grunge music genre, which mixed elements of punk rock and heavy metal into a dirty, aggressive sound. Soundgarden's sound during the early years of the Seattle grunge scene has been described as consisting of "gnarled neo-Zeppelinisms."Sub Pop viewed the band as having an angle that featured "a hunky lead singer and fused Led Zeppelin and the Butthole Surfers."

9. 爱丽丝 In Chains
爱丽丝 in Chains is an American hard rock band formed in Seattle, Washington in 1987 by guitarist Jerry Cantrell and vocalist Layne Staley. Although widely associated with grunge music, the band's sound incorporates heavy metal and acoustic elements. Since its formation, 爱丽丝 in Chains has released three studio albums, three EPs, two live albums, four compilations, and two DVDs. The band is known for its distinct vocal style which often includes the harmonized vocals of Staley and Cantrell.爱丽丝 in Chains rose to international fame as part of the grunge movement of the early 1990s, along with bands such as Nirvana, Pearl Jam, and Soundgarden. It was one of the most successful music acts of the 1990s and sold close to 11 million albums in the United States alone. The band achieved two number-one Billboard 200 albums (Jar of Flies and 爱丽丝 in Chains), 11 top ten singles on the Mainstream Rock Tracks charts, and six Grammy Award nominations.
成名之后的Layne Staley面对巨大的压力,开始终日沉溺于毒品。而爱丽丝 in Chains乐队也在1992年9月份发行第三张双白金专辑《Dirt》后,一度停止了巡演和宣传工作。就在这个时候,乐队贝司手Mike Starr宣布离队,他的位置由Mike Inez接替。1993年夏天,爱丽丝 in Chains乐队重整旗鼓,与Tool,Rage,Primus,Fishbone等大牌摇滚团体一同参加了着名的Lollapalooza巡演。然后便一头扎进了录音棚,录制全新EP专辑《Jar of Flies》,这张唱片在1994年Grunge摇滚如日中天的时候成功杀上Billboard专辑榜的首位,同时Layne Staley吸毒成性、无法自拔的谣言也不攻自破。在这张EP中,爱丽丝 in Chains尝试着加入一些新的配器来丰富他们的音乐风格,如对口琴、曼陀林等乐器的运用。给了乐迷一种全新的感受,也凸显出爱丽丝 in Chains乐队的成熟。然而此时在爱丽丝 in Chains乐队的内部却面临了空前的危机,10月份,主唱Layne Staley离开乐队参加了超级Grunge团体Gacy Bunch,也就是后来的Mad Season。当时的阵容包括主唱Layne Staley(爱丽丝 in Chains)、吉他手Mike McCready(Pearl Jam)、鼓手Martin Barnett(Screaming Trees)和贝司手John Baker Saunders。这个拥有许多着名乐手的Grunge乐队只在1995年的3月发行了一张专辑《Above》,之后就没有了下文。
1996年,疲惫不堪的爱丽丝 in Chains乐队为MTV音乐台录制了一场不插电的演唱会,并在夏天发行了这次演出的Live专辑《Unplugged》,评论对这张唱片的评价非常的高,认为它是爱丽丝 in Chains乐队成立以来最具代表性的专辑。木吉他的醇美加上乐队独特的诡异风格使之近乎完美。 Would

10. Mudhoney
Mudhoney is a grunge band that formed in Seattle, Washington in 1988. They have been an inspiration and influence on many grunge and alternative rock musicians, most notably Kurt Cobain of Nirvana. Mudhoney's career is chronicled in Our Band Could Be Your Life by Michael Azerrad, a study of several important American underground rock groups.As grunge entered the mainstream, Mudhoney shifted away from their early grunge sound. Many of the band's contemporaries were having huge success and gaining popularity worldwide. Mudhoney's first album with Reprise was Piece of Cake, which leaned more towards garage rock than grunge. Despite the fact that the band had signed to a major label, they retained their "quirkiness" and non-careerist attitudes.They also contributed a track "Overblown" at this time to the soundtrack to the "Generation X" film Singles.
In 1995, as grunge was fading from the mainstream, Mudhoney decided to return to their earlier sound. With their album My Brother the Cow they mixed their earlier and more recent sound, producing a fan favorite and arguably one of their finest albums. In 1996, Mudhoney appeared in the comedy movie Black Sheep, starring Chris Farley and David Spade. The band was shown performing at an MTV concert and then speaking with Farley backstage.
Mudhoney's melding of styles would become more pronounced on their following album, Tomorrow Hit Today, recorded and released in 1998. The album continued their garage and grunge sound but demonstrated a strong blues-rock influence. WHERE IS THE FUTURE?
