Innovative rock all the 'Rage'

In 1992, a little Seattle band named Nirvana turned the mainstream music world upside-down with its landmark album Nevermind. The group single-handedly wiped out hair-metal from the charts and opened the doors for a new style of music that was musically innovative and earned critical acclaim. Collectively labeled "alternative," it effectively took over the mainstream media. Among the bands that thrived in Nirvana's wake were Red Hot Chili Peppers, Pearl Jam, Alice in Chains, Jane's Addiction, Tool, and a fiery Los Angeles foursome called Rage Against the Machine.
