15. Hum - Stars
This starts out totally underwhelming, and then it just blows you away.
14. Alice in Chains - No Excuses
Vocal harmonies have been largely neglected in rock music from the '90s onward, so it's nice to hear this kind of arrangement. The result doesn't really fit into "grunge" or any other category I can think of. It's just plain good music. (From their excellent acoustic EP Jar of Flies.)
13. Pearl Jam - Even Flow
The rockingest portrait of homelessness I've ever heard.
Freezin', rests his head on a pillow made of concrete...

12. Weezer - Undone (The Sweater Song)
Perfect nerd rock.
Watch out for the dogs!
If you want to destroy my sweater, hold this thread as I walk away...
11. The Breeders - Cannonball
How to make a great rock recording by stringing together one gimmick after another.
The album this is from, Last Splash, and their debut album, Pod, are both essential items in the music library of anyone who digs the '90s.
Check, check, check, ah-ooooohhh-ooh...
