Pollsters just have to get more clever in how they phrase things - basically need to trick people into answering truthfully instead of leading them with stuff they know will make it onto the news.
Republicans and their financial situation have been getting better since mid 2022.
It's more about the people taking it than the methodology. Yougov is online and look at how Republicans feel about the economy. A Democrat is President they feel they have to claim things are terrible and as soon as a Republican is President everything is amazing.

I find the Soundgarden exclusion/mention odd because I'd argue that Stone Temple Pilots were more successful in the same time period. Purple was #7 in 1994 vs Superunknown #13, despite being released 3 months later.
Also funny, #2 in 1994 was Ace of Bass (behind #1 Lion King soundtrack).
Take a trip back to 1994, just a wild time to be a music buyer. Young people driving most music but enough old people buying Kenny G's Christmas album and Yanni Live at the Acropolis 😂
