Like Faith No More, Living Colour also helped smooth the way for grunge. They rocked, but they weren't hair metal and they were a little outside of the mainstream - I haven't listened to them in years, but I remember really digging their second and third albums. The third record got slept on because it came out in 93 at the height of grunge and they were out of style - but there are some songs that kick arse on it

Jane's Addiction came from the same clubs as hair metal but they were they're own thing. Gutter punks. Never confused as hair band and in a way had the grit and heroin addiction before grunge made it cool.
