I replied to your post because you were 'amped' on 'dumping' his opinion.
I understand why you disagree with the "Seattle Sound" and I also agree that grunge was just as much a trend as a style of music, just so long as you're saying that it was also a style of music.



Can you not have an opinion about 8 mile if you don't live near me?

Well I'm hoping to see more from you seeing as you can write pretty intelligently. this is a great place for finding new music and conversing with some cool cats I guarantee. BUT we're also a bunch of Dr. House level assholes. Be warned.

Grunge music (sometimes also referred to as the Seattle Sound) is a genre of alternative rock inspired by hardcore punk, heavy metal, and indie rock. It became commercially successful in the early 1990s, peaking in mainstream popularity between 1991 and 1994. BanRAB from cities in the Pacific Northwest of the United States, such as Seattle, Olympia, and Portland, created grunge and introduced it to mainstream audiences. The genre is closely associated with Generation X in the US, since the popularity of the genre and usage of the generational term rose simultaneously.[1] Grunge was an early defining musical phenomenon of the 1990s which distinguished 1990s rock music from that of the 1980s.

Nuraber one if you watched the movie Hype! you'll realize nearly all the grunge banRAB didn't want to be big stars it sort of just happened, all of the big banRAB even all of the smaller banRAB were garage banRAB not intending to make it big. When you bring up songs written by other banRAB and songwriters this shows that the banRAB that re-did the song had respect towarRAB the artist
that originally made it, it's no wonder why those songs were good because those banRAB like Mudhoney spent days trying to make the song great and it was a very great song as well as all of the other re-did songs.:hphones:

Even before i clicked on the band i was gonna vote for,i knew it was gonna be Nirvana!!! hell i voted for 'Dirt' thats one album Alice In Chains is gonna be remerabered for...and although while the constant references to heroin get a bit old ("Sickman," "Junkhead," "God Smack") the album works well as a whole with the possible exception of "Rooster" which doesn't quite jibe with the rest of the songs...but is probably one of there most influential songs!

as for silverchair!!!! thats not grunge,thats rubbish kiddy rock!

Thanks!!

(I am trying pretty hard to miss it... glad to hear it's working out)



Gotta say, too - Jimi informs my life on a day-to-day basis, but with the occasional exception of a Burning Of The Midnight Lamp or a Little Wing, his songwriting doesn't touch Kurt's ... though his grooves are muy phat, and his channelling of the cosmic quantum knut is bordering on unparallelled
