Grunge, brit pop, indie and some dance... Although honestly, anything was an improvement on the 1980's back then! I was a teenager all those years ago.
Started listening to lost of different genres and artists - Dodgy, Enigma, Fun Lovin' Criminals, Green Day, Manic Street Preachers, Oasis, Terrorvision. That's just a few.
simply red released their excellent album stars in the early 90s, I also liked blur, cringingly "take that", george michael (another good album "older") mariah carey.
there were a lot of one hit wonders as well that were brillo pads
