3 Forgotten Side Projects Featuring Iconic 90s Grunge Artists

· Vice

Many will know these artists as being the icons of 90s grunge. When grunge broke into the mainstream in 1991, the genre dominated the alternative music world for the next five years. During this time, some members of leading grunge acts created side projects. These three side projects may have been forgotten after 30 years.

The Jury

Before Nirvana broke into the mainstream, Kurt Cobain and Krist Novoselic created a forgotten side project with Mark Lanegan and Mark Pickerel of the Screaming Trees. Both Nirvana and Screaming Trees were part of the Pacific Northwest grunge scene in the late 80s and early 90s. Cobain and Lanegan shared a love for Lead Belly, an American folk and blues musician from the early 20th century. They created the acoustic-driven project The Jury, in contrast to the heavy sounds of their respective bands. Originally, Cobain wanted to name the band Lithium, a name he later used for a track on Nevermind in 1991.

The Jury recorded four songs in August 1989 with producer and engineer Jack Endino. They recorded four covers of Lead Belly songs, including “Where Did You Sleep Last Night?” This version later appeared on Mark Lanegan’s 1990 solo album The Winding Sheet. Nirvana recorded their own live version on MTV Unplugged in 1993.

M.A.C.C.

One of the most notorious side projects of 90s grunge is Temple Of The Dog. In 1990, members of Soundgarden and future members of Pearl Jam released a tribute album for their friend and grunge pioneer Andrew Wood. These same members, excluding Eddie Vedder and Stone Gossard, came together for another side project. In 1993, Pearl Jam guitarist Mike McCready and bassist Jeff Ament teamed up with Soundgarden singer Chris Cornell and drummer Matt Cameron. Together, they recorded a cover of “Hey Baby (Land Of The New Rising Sun)” for the tribute album Stone Free: A Tribute To Jimi Hendrix. It was the only song recorded and released by this group.

In 1992, Pearl Jam rhythm guitarist Stone Gossard formed a side project with Regan Hagar. Hagar was a member of the band Satchel. He had previously played drums in Malfunkshun, a pioneering grunge band that featured Andrew Wood, whose death inspired the creation of Temple Of The Dog. Gossard, Hagar, and vocalist Shawn Smith of Satchel released two albums in the 90s and four in the 21st century. The core of the group has been Gossard and Hagar, though vocalist Shawn Smith performed with the group until his death in 2019.

VOLLEYBALL: Claremore's Doyle suffers fractured elbow, ruled out for state tournament

· Yahoo Sports

Addison Doyle helped Claremore punch its ticket to the Class 5A state volleyball tournament.

She just won't get the chance to play in it.

Visit rouesnews.click for more information.

The Lady Zebras' senior middle hitter announced Tuesday that a fractured elbow has ended her high school career, delivering a devastating blow to a Claremore team preparing to pursue its first appearance in a state championship match.

Doyle suffered the injury during a team activity last week, after helping the Lady Zebras capture their regional championship with a sweep of Coweta on Oct. 12.

"I didn't think I'd be making this post until next week, but here we are," Doyle wrote on Instagram. "My senior year has sadly come to an end due to a fracture in my elbow, meaning I won't be able to compete at State. My last high school volleyball game ended up being at regionals, and I didn't even know it."

The announcement comes just two days before No. 2 Claremore [28-9] is scheduled to face No. 7 Shawnee [21-15] in the state quarterfinals at 2:45 p.m. Thursday at Noble High School.

It is a significant loss for a team that has relied on Doyle's contributions at the net throughout the season, and her performance in the regional championship offered a reminder of just how important she has been.

Against Coweta, Doyle contributed as both an attacker and blocker, helping the Lady Zebras overwhelm the Lady Tigers in straight sets and secure their fourth consecutive state tournament appearance.

Her ability to produce points in multiple ways made her a valuable complement to Claremore's other offensive weapons, including Emme Baker and Bella Hoisington.

In the third set of the regional championship, Doyle recorded 3 kills and an ace, accounting for four of Claremore's 25 points as the Lady Zebras completed the sweep. She finished the match with 8 kills, 3 aces and a block.

Her contributions helped Claremore generate 59 of its 75 points through its own offensive and defensive plays rather than relying on Coweta errors or violations.

Now, the Lady Zebras must attempt to replicate that production without one of their most experienced front-row players.

Doyle's absence creates a challenge for coach Derek Jackson, who must adjust his lineup at the most important point of the season. Audrey Shaw will take her place.

Losing Doyle means Claremore will have to replace both her offensive production and her ability to disrupt opposing attacks.

The timing makes the injury particularly painful.

Claremore has qualified for four consecutive state tournaments, the longest streak in program history, but has yet to reach the championship match.

This season's bracket offers a favorable opportunity for the Lady Zebras to change that.

Claremore defeated Shawnee twice during the regular season, sweeping the Lady Wolves 2-0 on Aug. 22 before earning a 2-1 victory Sept. 12.

But the Lady Zebras will enter Thursday's rematch without a player who helped them reach this point.

For Doyle, the disappointment extends beyond missing an opportunity to compete for a state championship.

In her announcement, Doyle reflected on the relationships and experiences that made those seasons memorable.

"I'm forever grateful for everything CZVB has given me over the past three years," she wrote. "From countless hours in the Dougie [Doug K. Mosier Athletic Complex] to traveling for tournaments, the memories and friendships I've made will last a lifetime.

"Thank you to Coach Jackson for giving me this opportunity and pushing me to become the athlete I am today, and to Coach Baughman for encouraging me to transfer to Claremore."
