Yo yo people. On to my next song in the series! :)
The band, Candlebox. They formed in Seattle, in 1990, and were active up until 2000, when they disbanded.. However, in 2006, they got back together, and are presently active as a band again. The band was the first successful group for Maverick Records, which went on to sign bands such as: Alanis Morissette, Deftones, and others. Below, I am linking the song, enjoy!
Video original de Candlebox Far Behind, dedicado a Andrew Wood.

An ex girlfriend had a Candlebox CD. Good album.

@mawdest - I think it was the first album.

Candlebox is another classic 90s band. Fine selection. Alternative radio mainstays of the time.

Thanks John! :) Agreed, I like them a lot. I think it's interesting/kind of funny that I heard how Kurt Cobain kind of got in to a fight with them about how Candlebox "isn't really grunge" or whatever (something along those lines) but I love Nirvana too so not sure whose side to take, and even if Candlebox isn't truly grunge, don't entirely care.. Just seems weird of Cobain to try to pick a fight, kinda.

I wouldn't consider Candlebox grunge but to each his own. I do agree that 'Far Behind' is a really great song.
Memories...

Truthfully, I don't hardly consider Candlebox grunge myself either, but since some people do and it kind of got lumped in to grunge somehow (supposedly..?) I decided to make it on to my list lol.
Anyways, yeah, good song, isn't it? I like a lot of Candlebox's songs. Their first album I quite liked, and Happy Pills was decent. I never listened to Lucy for some reason (the album) and anything after Happy Pills, never listened to either.
