I'd say possibly earlier Smashing Pumpkins than Siamese Dream, Gish is actually a very good album. And the B side album to Siamese Dream, Pisces Iscariot is bloody good. Have to say thought that songs like Mayonnaise, Disarm, and Soma, Today are brilliant, and personally far outclass Nirvana stuff.
Siamese Dream was one of those albums that 'changed my life'. Young lad, first music I chose & listened to myself. Disarm gets to me every time!!!Hey, Neil Young, the "Godfather of grunge" 
I was a big fan of NY&CH in the early 80's so I spose it's no dsurprise that in the 90's I got into the "Seattle sound"
: picks up guitar to play "Into the black" :
edit to fix accidental smiley, and to add Live are one of my all time favourite bands. Saw then on MTV Live on TV and went and bought Throwing Copper the next day

Also the soundtrack to "Clerks" featuring a pretty good cover of Go Your Own Way by Seaweed and the truly immense and never to be forgotton Jesus Lizard
Kudos to the poster who mentions Paw's Dragline one of the best albums from that era with songs that encompass everthing from losing your dog to Pick ups and shark fishing
You can probably get it on a well known auction site for about 10p

Throwing a Wildcard in here..
R.E.M.s album Monster from '94 was very grunge inspired, not doubt due to Kurt Cobain's death. (He and Stipe were friends).
The track Let Me In was played on Cobain's Stratocaster and is about Stipe wanting to get into cobains mind and understand why he did it.

Listening now on You Tube and love it!! 
Thanks 
Kyuss gets the thumbs up for me to - either Welcome to Sky Valley or The Circus Leaves town. Both excellent albums by an excellent album - but were't Kyuss Stoner Rock rather than Grunge?
Another good stoner/grunge album is Orange by Celestail Season - very rare, and sounds very much like Kyuss.
Also, Soundgarden's Badmotorfinger has to be one of the definitive gruyngy albums
