Semisonic

Best known for their Alternative crossover smash, Closing Time, Semisonic had a few other hits, though none that ever reached the popularity of what would become a late 90’s bar anthem. Truthfully, that was about it for the Minnesota based rockers, as by 2001, they released their last (uncharted) album and were never heard from again. 

Raekwon

Much like GZA, Raekwon did not achieve the levels of commercial success that some of the other members of the Wu-Tang Clan did, but there was no denying his skills which was evidenced on his solo efforts. Realistically, the best chances for Raekwon and all of the members of the Wu-Tang would be as a group. Honestly, isn’t that how they should go in anyway? 

Porno for Pyros

Although Perry Farrell has a major claim for the Hall of Fame with Jane’s Addiction, his work with his second major band, Porno for Pyros should not go unnoticed. Porno for Pyros followed the same path, although was a little disjointed at times. Farrell’s best Hall of Fame chance lies with Jane’s Addiction, as it should. 

Luscious Jackson

A band that seemed to know no real boundaries, Luscious Jackson was a eclectic blend of Alt Rock and New Bohemia. With a name inspired by a former basketball player (which we love by the way), the band were underground darlings in New York and though they never made the mainstream, we doubt they wanted it anyway.
