I think what the OP is asking is for alternative rock of the 90s…anything from when Nirvana was The Band.
So, to that effect, what she needs is:
Stone Temple Pilots: Interstate Love Song, Lady Picture Show, Days of the Week, Plush
Red Hot Chili Peppers: Under the Bridge
The Toadies: Possum Kingdom, Tyler, I Come From the Water
Weezer: The Sweater Song, Buddy Holly, Say it Aint So, Holiday
Pearl Jam: Evenflow
