Regarding Matthew Sweet, I'm surprised you don't like "Girlfriend" given that you like Television. I believe that the same guitarist plays on both. FWIW, "Girlfriend" is a desert Island cd for me. Matthew Sweet went through a rough breakup during this time. Isn't it great when artists go through intense emotional crises?

Another great album around the same time is CANDLEBOX - s/t. Another instance of a band whose other albums blow chunks, but who caught lightning in a blottle for that one lone album. IMHO, of course.
