Yeah, but wasn't that song or two one of their lower peaking singles anyway? And No Excuses peaked at #3, but then you still have tons of other singles after that that did well on Active and not Modern. I can't think of anyone else at the top of my head in a similar situation. I think it's definitely more unusual than usual.

^Yeah, but by that time grunge was pretty much over anyway. By late 1996, when Alice stopped doing much on Alternative, the format was just one year away from charting Sugar Ray and Smash Mouth. Granted, some grungier stuff did pretty well (take Days of the New), but it was fading by that time.
^And this isn't that unusual. What about Rage Against the Machine? Nine Inch Nails? The list of songs that didn't chart in the late 80s and early 90s that are staples nowadays are plentiful.
