3. Stone Temple Pilots
One grunge band from outside of Seattle is Stone Temple Pilots. STP had so much going on for them that made it as one of the more prominent names in the genre of 1990s alternative. The group had over 17 million albums sold in the United States alone, fifteen singles topped the Billboard charts, a Best Hard Rock Performance” Grammy award, and a number of American Music awards.
Alongside STP’s fame was a load of harsh criticisms against them. They rose so quickly upon the release of their debut album Core and their fans grew more and more. The Rolling Stone magazine declared them as the Best New Band but their music critics said otherwise Worst New Band. However, before actually disbanding in the year 2002, the group released four more albums that were all successful, and this made STP leave a deep mark in the grunge music scene.
