90s Rock Hits #416
Fifty-one tracks of the alt-rock and post-grunge canon that defined American rock radio from roughly 1992 through Y2K. 311 and blink-182 ride the SoCal pop-punk-meets-reggae-rock current; Alice in Chains drags it back into the heavy-grunge underbelly; The Black Crowes throw bluesy southern-rock into the same set without breaking the spell. It’s the rotation that lived on every late-’90s mix CD — angsty enough to mean something, hooky enough to belt out in a moving car. The April 2016 build with later sequencing tweaks, but the same core run that earned it a spot in heavy circulation back when CD changers held six discs.
