Question: Between The House of Love and 1990s, which band was considered to be an alternative rock band?

Context paragraphs:
The House of Love (1990 album): The House of Love is the second album by British alternative rock band The House of Love, released on Fontana Records in 1990.  It should not be confused with the band's debut album, which is also called "The House of Love".  It is generally referred to either as Fontana (after the record label it was issued on) or The Butterfly album (after Trevor Key's sleeve art).

List of songs recorded by My Bloody Valentine: My Bloody Valentine, an alternative rock band from Dublin, Ireland, have recorded songs for three studio albums and a number of extended plays, singles and compilation releases.  Formed in 1983 by Kevin Shields, Colm Ó Cíosóig and David Conway, the band had a series of unsuccessful releases throughout the mid-1980s on various independent record labels.  In 1987, after the addition of bassist Debbie Googe and vocalist-guitarist Bilinda Butcher, My Bloody Valentine released "Strawberry Wine", "Ecstasy", and the 1988 EP "You Made Me Realise", which were predecessors to the band's debut album "Isn't Anything" (1988).  Considered an independent success, the band released two further EPs before "Loveless" (1991), their second studio album; which is considered their "magnum opus" and which received unanimous critical acclaim since its release.  Both albums pioneered an alternative rock subgenre known as shoegazing, a term coined by "Sounds" journalists to describe certain bands' "motionless performing style, where they stood on stage and stared at the floor".  My Bloody Valentine disbanded in 1997 after failing to utilise a third album although Kevin Shields was rumoured to have sent 60 hours worth of material to Island Records, with whom the band signed after being dropped by Creation Records in 1991.  My Bloody Valentine reunited in 2007 and began completing their third album.  The album, "m b v", was self-released in 2013 and received "universal acclaim", according to Metacritic.

The Breeders discography: The discography of American alternative rock band The Breeders consists of four studio albums, one live album, three extended plays, ten singles and twelve music videos. Kim Deal, then-bassist of American alternative rock band the Pixies, formed The Breeders as a side-project with Tanya Donelly, guitarist of American alternative rock band Throwing Muses.  After recording a demo tape, The Breeders signed to the English independent record label 4AD in 1989.  Their debut studio album "Pod" was released in May 1990, but was not commercially successful.  After the revival of the Pixies and Throwing Muses in 1990, The Breeders became mostly inactive until the Pixies' breakup in 1993.  With a new lineup, The Breeders released their "Safari" EP in 1992, followed by their second studio album "Last Splash" in 1993.  "Last Splash" was The Breeders' most successful album; it peaked at number 33 on the United States "Billboard" 200 and was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America in 1994.  The album spawned the band's most successful single, "Cannonball".  The single peaked at number 44 on the US "Billboard" Hot 100 and at number two on the "Billboard" Alternative Songs chart.

Following several acclaimed albums, including "Let It Be" and "Tim", Bob Stinson left the band in 1986, and Slim Dunlap joined as lead guitarist.  Steve Foley replaced Mars in 1990.

The Replacements never had significant commercial success, except for "I'll Be You", which hit number 1 on the "Billboard" Alt Rock chart, but they influenced numerous alternative rock acts.

The station is also transmitting on Oceanic Time Warner Cable digital channel 857 for the entire state of Hawaii.  They are the third station to adopt the KPOI calls, as they were first used on the AM band as a Top 40, then later used on its FM sister at 97.5, when it was billed as KPOI 98 Rock playing AOR and later alternative rock prior to its sale to Salem Communications in 2004.

Express (album): Express is the second studio album by English alternative rock band Love and Rockets.  It was released on 15 September 1986 on Beggars Banquet Records.  An even greater departure from the band members' previous work as Bauhaus, the album's fusion of underground rock with pop stylings can be seen as an early example of alternative rock music, a genre that reached mainstream popularity in the early 1990s.
