Most Criminally Boring Bands of the Mid-90s

 

People of the Internet: Here is the DEFINITIVE list of the most criminally boring bands of the mid-90's:

 5. Sarah McLachlan...I can't even remember one of her songs, but I can remember they played her on the radio all the time. Also, sad dogs.

4. Stone Temple Pilots...Apparently, if you try too hard to sound like Pearl Jam you die of a heroin overdose (too soon?) 

3. Dave Matthews Band...Ants...marching? To what, an ant parade?

2. Hootie and the Blowfish...If you rip off Bob Dylan and then name drop him in the same song, this does not make things right, Hootie.

1. Gin Blossoms...Why does this band exist? Why?!! Why not any other decent band from the 90's? Velocity Girl? Possum Dixon? Buffalo Tom?
