POND
High school buddies Chris Brady and Charlie Campbell relocated from their hometown of Juneau, AK, to Portland, OR, in 1989. Two years later, they recruited drummer Dave Triebwasser (ex-Thrillhammer) and formed Pond. They were quickly signed to Sub Pop, and their eponymous 1993 debut album fit nicely into the Pacific Northwest grunge movement that was dominating popular music. But with their short hair and earnest songs, Pond never quite fit into the grunge scene and they struggled to gain notoriety outside of Portland and Seattle, where they had in fact become quite popular.

SLEEVE NEAR MINT but (please, see pictures and read above description)
This is an outstanding album, relaxed and yet intensely emotional, grungy but not macho or over-earnest, it's the perfect slacker outro of all the Pearl Jamminess and an escape from the Soundgardens. You need to get this if you enjoy great 90s jams, and understated songwriting brilliance. For fans of Rein Sanction, Pavement, Thirty Ought Six...(AllMusic User Review)
