The early nineties were dominated by alternative music, a trend initiated by Nirvana's hit album Nevermind. Many similar sounding bands achieved success. Ska, an older genre, got some mainstream success, particularly with "Knock on Wood" by the Might Might Bosstones. Finally, bands such as Squirrel Nut Zippers had a "retro" sound heavily influenced by jazz from the twenties and thirties.
