Bush was an English alternative rock band formed in 1992. Their debut album was the self-released Sixteen Stone in 1994.
The group chose the name “Bush” because they used to live in Shepherd’s Bush, London.
Their first album, Sixteen Stone (1994), was a huge commercial success. Almost overnight, Bush went from playing small pubs in London to headlining arenas in the US, the result of extensive, non-stop touring. Critics rightfully labeled them as an inferior derivative of bands such as Nirvana and Pixies, and this criticism followed them throughout their career as a band. In particular, Rossdale’s throaty singing voice and random, stream of consciousness-style lyrics were dismissed by some as an imitation of Nirvana’s lead singer, Kurt Cobain. Although the band reached superstar status in the U.S., they failed to have much impact on the britpop riddled UK charts, the lone exception being their single
Swallowed, which reached #7. A change in record labels, management and an extended hiatus did not bode well for the band, who unofficially split in 2002.
Bush’s albums include Razorblade Suitcase (produced by Steve Albini), Deconstructed, The Science of Things, and Golden State, none of which matched the sales success of the debut album, Sixteen Stone.

OK, "Sixteen Stone" and "Razoblade Suitcase" are a kickin' asses albums, but I think "The Science of Things" and "Golden State" are great albums too. In these isn't the same sound of 1994/96 but, both have amazing songs: "The Chemical Between Us", "English Fire" (TSoT) and "Headful of Ghosts", "Hurricane", "Inflatable", "Float' and "Superman" (Golden State). The two last Bush's albums were so UNDERRATED.-

I never understood the hate these guys got. The only legitimate criticisms, IMO, are they aren't original and the lyrics are often ridiculous. But as far as the actual songs go, musically they can be quite good.

Wow, The People That We Love isn't in the top 15. I'll attribute that to the Speed Kills issue.

I remember watching an interview where Gavin said that maybe the band could make a comeback, I don't remember if it's recent but it could be true, i mean his solo career wasn't exactly a success (unfortunately).
