My local indie station has been playing the latest from Soccer Mommy and Mamma, and I’m loving the neo-90s vibe of both albums. Any recommendations for similar bands?

The Beths
Illuminati Hotties, Charly Bliss
Big theif

Ethel Cain's album Preacher's Daughter from last year takes a lot from the same 90s influences as Soccer Mommy
My favorite '90s sounding newer artists are Horsegirl and Wednesday
Speeding 72 is such a great song
True, but the lyric "filling up the ashtray" reminds me of long bygone times.
beabadoobee (I always have to figure out how to spell her name).
You might like Warpaint and Chastity Belt, too.
Men I Trust is a great one, too.
If you like Soccer Mommy, try Hockey Dad.
The Greeting Committee
Remember Sports
Maybe not the most similar but all the others I was gonna say have already been pointed out so here's some more options.
Remember Sports
Ratboys!
People have already mentioned some great bands all I'll throw in is Skating Polly. Some of their songs are in a similar vibe while others will be a little harder but overall big 90s vibe
Hockey dad
Sleater-Kinney

If you didn't come from wtmd out of Towson MD, check them out.
Maybe this doesn't fit but Soccer Mommy's "Unholy Affliction" has some Portishead vibes imo.
Beach Bunny, The Beths, Lunar Vacation, Wildermiss, Cafune…all I can think of off the top of my head.
A lot of great female-driven favorites listed. I’ll add Vero. Check out their song Beluga. And Laura Lee & the Jettes. Check out their song Wasteland. And also I’d add (male) Car Seat Headrest. Check out their album Teens of Denial.
Idk if you'd consider this similar, but any indie discussion needs to include snail mail
NoSo their album is perfection and only came out last year
As someone who grew up in the '90's, which actual 90's bands do these remotely sound like?
The Cardigans, Marcy Playground, Garbage, Weezer, Jawbreaker
TY!
That Momma album rules. I promise.
I mean, theyre not trying to make 1:1 reproductions of 90s music, but you can hear the influence of Mazzy Star, Liz Phair, Belly, Veruca Salt, Alanis, Catatonia, Elastica, That Dog, Saint Etienne, The Sundays, Velocity Girl, The Cardigans, The Breeders (more Drivin on 9 than Cannonball), Helium, etc.
Strangely, Cannonball was Tonya Donelly era Breeders and Donelly formed Belly after leaving due to Kim and Kelly's (Deal sisters, Kim was former bassist for the Pixies) addiction issues. She was in step-sister Kristen Hirsh's band Throwing Muses before that. Always thought she had a lovely voice, but didn't really keep up when she dropped off the map to raise kids. I know there was a Belly reunion a few years back, but I missed it.
They’re not similar but to stick with the theme, Secret Mommy
The Mamas and the Papas
Hockey Dad. Granddaddy. Mothers of invention.
I would like an entire thread on Mothers of Invention, thank you.
I see what you did there..
