As do I. I just don't like it.
Anymore, that is.

I'm surprised I'm not the only one voting Weezer over Radiohead. Had Kid A been involved it would've been a difficult choice, but Blue and Pinkerton mean a bit more to me than The Bends and OK Computer (though I do love both those albums).

The battle between Radiohead and Weezer was a tough one, but the Blue album and Pinkerton are far more infectious than Radiohead's albums. Not by much though.

I know we're supposed to judge based solely on 90's output but there is no way for me to judge weezer without thinking about how absolutely awful the rest of their output has been.
I'd still pick radiohead over weezer without the bias but it'd be a lot closer than it was.

Maybe it helps that Weezer is so bad now, solidifying their title of "90s band." 19. Beck 20. Weezer 21. Nirvana

So this is what it comes down to...
Nirvana - Nevermind and In Utero
Beck - [Early Albums], Mellow Gold, Odelay, Mutations, Midnite Vultures
Radiohead - Pablo Honey, The Bends, OK Computer
...
I'm still going to go with
Radiohead
but close call.

fitter happier more productive comfortable not drinking too much regular exercise at the gym (3 days a week) getting on better with your associate employee contemporaries at ease eating well (no more microwave dinners and saturated fats) a patient better driver a safer car (baby smiling in back seat) sleeping well (no bad dreams) no paranoia careful to all animals (never washing spiders down the plughole) keep in contact with old friends (enjoy a drink now and then) will frequently check credit at (moral) bank (hole in wall) favours for favours fond but not in love charity standing orders on sundays ring road supermarket (no killing moths or putting boiling water on the ants) car wash (also on sundays) no longer afraid of the dark or midday shadows nothing so ridiculously teenage and desperate nothing so childish at a better pace slower and more calculated no chance of escape now self-employed concerned (but powerless) an empowered and informed member of society (pragmatism not idealism) will not cry in public less chance of illness tires that grip in the wet (shot of baby strapped in back seat) a good memory still cries at a good film still kisses with saliva no longer empty and frantic like a cat tied to a stick that's driven into frozen winter shit (the ability to laugh at weakness) calm fitter, healthier and more productive a pig in a cage on antibiotics
tl;dr Radiohead

I'm still convinced Beck meant more to the 90s than Radiohead did. And as much as I love both Beck and Radiohead, Nirvana had by-far the biggest influence on music during the 90s.
I'm going with Kurt.
