106.7 KOOQ August 18, 2001.
106.7 KOOQ August 18, 2001. The rise of alternative rock, grunge, punk pop, and Britpop acts such as the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Stone Temple Pilots, Weezer, Green Day, The Offspring, Blink-182, Foo Fighters, Oasis, Blur, Gin Blossoms, Beck, Blind Melon, Everclear, 311 and others—combined with new shows such as Kevin & Bean and Loveline, as well as concert events such as Weenie Roast and Almost Acoustic Christmas—helped the station surge back to number one in the ratings, which it remained until the mid 2000s, when it slipped to the middle of the pack ratings wise for Los Angeles area radio stations.
KROQ helped launch the careers of previously low-key Southern California bands, such as Suicidal Tendencies, The Offspring, The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Oingo Boingo, Sublime, No Doubt, Rage Against the Machine, Tool, Blink-182, System of a Down, Bad Religion and Social Distortion. They pride themselves on being "world famous" for their discovery of up-and-coming artists and are often the first US station to promote new rock bands before their large-scale success.
